Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
Melt 1 cup of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool slightly. Whisk in the eggs one at a time.
Stir in the flour and salt until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let the brownie base cool completely.
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue beating until fluffy.
Mix in the mint extract and green food coloring to achieve a light, minty green color.
Spread the mint cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled brownie base and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate chips with the heavy whipping cream until smooth and glossy.
Pour the melted chocolate over the mint layer, spreading it evenly. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the layers to set.
Once set, slice into squares or bars and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
