Instructions
- Mix the brownies according to box instructions.
- Butter the bottom of a 9 X 13 dish, and pour brownie batter into the dish, and bake using the instructions on the box.

- Continue adding cream a Tablespoon at a time, alternating with the powdered sugar, until all cream and powdered sugar have been added.

- When frosting is mixed, ice the brownies with frosting, using all the frosting, creating a thick layer of green frosting on the brownie.
