My sister-in-law brought these for Christmas and I have made them many times since. I have yet to bring these somewhere & not have to give out the recipe. They are my kids favorite brownie recipe & if you like peppermint flavor, you will love these! Ingredients:
1 (22 1/2 ounce) package brownie mix (i use betty crocker with the hershey's syrup pouch) |
2 cups powdered sugar |
2 tablespoons milk |
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract |
4 tablespoons butter |
3 ounces semi-sweet chocolate baking squares (or use 3 oz of chips) |
3 tablespoons butter |
2 candy canes, crushed (or use peppermint candies) (optional) |
Directions:
1. Bake brownies according to package directions in a 9 x 13 pan. Cool. Blend sugar, milk, peppermint extract and 4 tbsp butter until smooth; spread over cooled brownies. Melt chocolate and 3 tbsp butter in microwave (do not overcook, just until melted. I do 12 seconds at a time, stir, 10 more seconds, etc). When chocolate is melted, stir and spread over the peppermint icing. Sprinkle with crushed candy canes if you choose. When chocolate is set, cut into squares.
