Ingredient List
- 1 box Betty Crocker™ Delights Belgian Chocolate & Mint Flavour Brownie Mix
- Vegetable oil, water and egg called for on the brownie mix box
- 1 tub Betty Crocker™ Indulgent Chocolate Fudge Icing
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C for fan assisted ovens)/Gas Mark 4. Grease and line a 20cm square shallow cake tin.
- Make, bake and cool the brownies as directed on the brownie box using the oil, water and egg.
- Cut the brownie slab in half and sandwich together with three-quarters of the mint flavour icing from the brownie box. Cut into 8 squares. Place on a wire rack with a baking tray underneath. Push a skewer or cocktail stick through the centre of each cake (see tip).
- Melt the chocolate fudge icing in a pan over a low heat. Spoon the icing over the cakes, slowly and carefully, to ensure all sides are covered (see tip).
- Put the remaining mint icing into a piping bag fitted with a fine writing nozzle. Pipe over the tops of the cakes, then sprinkle with the Belgian chocolate flakes from the brownie box. Serve immediately or leave in a cool place until the icing has set or store in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
Tips
- A skewer or cocktail stick pushed through the cakes holds them together, which makes it much easier when you’re coating with the hot icing. Once you place them onto a serving board you can remove the skewer or stick and cover the hole with a couple of the chocolate flakes.
- Trim the brownie edges, to make sure you have exactly even and square cakes.
- If some cakes aren’t fully covered when the icing is spooned over the first time, melt the chocolate icing caught by the tray underneath the cakes and pour over again.
- If you don't have a fine writing nozzle, try simply snipping off the end of a disposable piping bag.
