GF Mint Brownies

My friend brought these glorious brownies to homeschool group yesterday.  (Yes, I'm still teaching in my commonwealth despite my kid going off to college early.)  I asked her if I could have the recipe... 

Yeah, she said, "It's on your blog."

Wow, It's been too long.

Baking them today!

5 eggs or (2 eggs and 1/2 cup egg substitute like Egg Beaters)
1/4 cup butter melted
2 Tbsp. water
1 tsp vanilla

Hersheys is g-f. ***  homemade recipe link below
2 Tablespoons cocoa powder

Mix wet ingredients and add the flour mix. Bake in a 9x13 pan at 350 for about 23 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

MINT Layer:

2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup butter (softened)
