INGREDIENTS YOU WILL NEED TO MAKE DOUBLE DELIGHT CHOCOLATE PEPPERMINT BROWNIES

One of my favorite things about this brownie recipe is that you can either use your favorite made-from-scratch brownie recipe, or you can use a boxed mix.

I opted to use a boxed mix. If you do the same, remember you will also need the ingredients called for on that box.

You will find the full ingredients and directions in the free printable recipe card at the end of this post.

• 1 box Brownie Mix OR your favorite homemade brownie recipe
• if using a brownie mix: the ingredients that mix calls for (usually water, vegetable oil and egg)
• 1/4 cup or less of chocolate syrup
• 4 tbsp. crushed peppermint – if you can’t find any crushed peppermint, just grab a few candy canes or peppermint discs and crush them yourself.

INSTRUCTIONS TO MAKE THESE BROWNIES

Making these Double Delight Chocolate Peppermint Brownies is a cinch!

Step One: Bake Brownies

Begin by baking the brownies in a 9″ x 9″ square pan according to your recipe or the instructions on the box. Once the brownies are finished baking, allow them to cool completely.

Step Two: Add Chocolate Syrup

Next, pour a small amount of the chocolate syrup into a snack bag and snip off a tiny corner. This makes it easier to control the amount of chocolate as you do not want too much. Now drizzle some of the syrup over the brownies.

Step Three: Add Peppermint

Follow the chocolate syrup with a sprinkling of crushed peppermint. The syrup will help hold the peppermint on the top of the brownies.

Step Four: More Chocolate

Then finish off with another drizzle of chocolate syrup.

And that’s it! You are done! See, I told you it was incredibly easy!

Pro Tip: I always let the brownies sit for least 15 minutes before serving so the syrup will set a bit.

These soft and chewy, chocolatey peppermint brownies not only make a great sweet treat for the entire family to enjoy, but they also make an amazing homemade gift! After all not many people can resist that heavenly combination of chocolate and peppermint!

Simply wrap the Double Delight Chocolate Peppermint Brownies individually in a pretty holiday treat bag or holiday treat boxes, attach a cute sticker or card, and gift away!
