Tips:
- Use a high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the brownies tough.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the brownies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
- For a mint chocolate ganache frosting, simply melt together equal parts chocolate and heavy cream.
- To make the brownies even more decadent, add a layer of chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter before baking.
- For a festive presentation, decorate the brownies with mint leaves or chocolate shavings.
