Ingredients
- 1/2 cup palm shortening

Directions
Blend the Frosting: In a food processor, combine palm shortening, coconut cream, matcha powder, maple syrup, and mint leaves or extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Chill the Frosting: Transfer the frosting to a container, cover, and refrigerate for 10 minutes to let it set.
Stir & Soften: Remove from the refrigerator, give the frosting a quick stir, and let it soften slightly if it’s too firm.

Chill Again (Optional): For a firmer frosting texture, return the frosted brownies to the refrigerator for a few more minutes.
