Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overbaking will make the brownies dry.
Let the brownies cool completely before glazing. This will help the glaze set properly.
For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate.
For a more intense mint flavor, use peppermint extract.
If you don't have a microwave, you can melt the chocolate in a double boiler.
To make a double boiler, simply place a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water.
Stir the chocolate constantly until it is melted.
If you don't have a wire rack, you can cool the brownies on a baking sheet.
