From my mother-in-law (!) ONE OF THE BEST BROWNIES EVER!!! They are so rich and cool from the pockets of mint; almost like candy-enjoy;) Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter |
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate |
1 cup sugar |
3/4 cup flour |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
10 mini peppermint patties, quartered (they're easier to cut if they've been chilled a bit) |
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 tablespoon corn syrup |
Directions:
1. BROWNIES: Preheat oven to 350*F. 2. Grease the bottom only of an 8 square baking pan; set aside. 3. Melt the butter and unsweetened chocolate together in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth; remove pan from heat. 4. Stir in the sugar, flour, eggs, vanilla, and baking soda until well blended. 5. Spread 1 cup batter evenly in the prepared pan; place the peppermint patties on top of the batter. 6. Gently spread the remaining batter over the candy to completely cover them. 7. Bake for 25-27 minutes, or until the brownies begin to pull away from the sides of the pan. 8. Cool completely. 9. GLAZE: Melt the chocolate chips and butter together in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth; stir in the corn syrup. 10. Remove pan from heat; let stand 10 minutes, or until mixture begins to thicken. 11. Spread glaze over cooled brownies; cover and refrigerate until the glaze is set, about 10 minutes. 12. Cut into bars. |
