Green Brownies - Recipe by Snoop Dogg and E-40
Ingredients
105 g all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
80 g chopped chocolate mints
40 g cocoa powder
150 g sugar
90mL vegetable oil
2 eggs, lightly beaten
16 chocolate-covered peppermint patties
Mint chocolate chip ice cream, for serving
Method
Preheat the oven to 165 C. Grease a 20 cm x 20 cm baking pan and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring 80mL of water to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat and add the chocolate mints and cocoa powder. Stir until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Transfer to a medium bowl.
Add the sugar, vegetable oil and eggs to the chocolate mixture. Stir until blended and smooth.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the chocolate mixture, stirring until just combined. Spread half of the batter evenly into the prepared pan, then arrange the peppermint patties evenly on top. Gently spread the remaining batter on top of the patties.
Bake until the top and edges are set and a toothpick inserted into an area away from the peppermint patties comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 25 to 30 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking.
Place the pan on a wire rack and let cool for 1 hour. Invert the brownies onto the rack and let cool completely.
Invert the brownies onto a cutting board and cut into nine pieces. Serve topped with a scoop of mint chocolate chip ice cream.
