Holiday Recipe of the Week { White Chocolate & Peppermint Brownies }

Posted by Hugs, Mal!



Peppermint Brownies with White Chocolate Chips and Peppermint Bark

Ingredients:
1 box brownie mix*
*I like to use apple sauce instead of the oil. Makes them moister and just a tad healthier!
1/2 tsp peppermint extract
1 box candy canes
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 package good quality white chocolate for melting

Directions:
Prepare brownies according to package directions and add 1/2 tsp of peppermint extract
and 1 cup white chocolate chips to batter. Cook according to package directions.
Cool brownies completely. Once brownies have cooled cut into desired size pieces
(after the drizzled white chocolate is on the brownies it is nearly impossible to cut
them without having the white chocolate crack and break). Crush candy canes in plastic
bag; set aside. Melt white chocolate over double boiler or in a microwave safe dish.
Place melted chocolate in piping bag. Liberally drizzle pre-cut brownies with white
chocolate and immediately sprinkle with candy cane pieces while the chocolate is still wet.
