Mint Chocolate Bars

Ingredients:

0.5 cup butter

0.5 cup white sugar

0.25 cup plus 2 tbsp brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla

1.5 tsp mint extract

1 egg

1 cup all-purpose flour

0.25 cup cocoa

0.5 tsp baking soda

2 bars Cadbury mint chocolate

dusting of powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 325F, and pre grease 8x8" baking pan.

Cream together the butter, brown sugar and white sugar using a hand mixer. When properly integrated, add in the vanilla, egg, and mint extract. Combine.

In a separate bowl whisk together the cocoa, flour, baking soda.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the batter and mix. Pour into the baking pan.

Cut the chocolate into 2cm x 2cm pieces, and press into the batter at the center of each piece. Crush remaining chocolate into slivers and sprinkle on top.


Bake for about 25-30 mins (careful not to overcook), and remove. Allow to cool, then cut into 9 squares. Once completely cool, dust with icing sugar.
