Brownies + peppermint crunch? Yes, there are no words. Well, maybe amazing… or delicious… I guess holy heck would work too. They are that good.
The basics for this recipe came from I Heart Naptime. I changed it up a little bit.
Ingredients
- 1 brownie mix and ingredients according to package directions
- 1 stick of butter softened
- 2 Tbsp. milk
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 package (28 pieces) Andes Peppermint Crunch Thins, chopped
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Make brownie mix according to package.
- Pour into a greased 9x9 pan. Bake according to package directions. Cool for about an hour.
- In a medium sized bowl mix 4 Tbsp. butter, powdered sugar and milk until fluffy. Fold in half of the chopped Andes Peppermint Crunch Thins. Spread mint frosting over brownies. Refrigerate 1 hour.
- For chocolate glaze, combine 4 Tbsp. butter and chocolate chips and melt for 1 minute in the microwave. Once chocolate chips are melted, stir in vanilla. Pour over frosting and spread by tipping pan. Sprinkle remaining Andes Peppermint Crunch Thins on top.
- Refrigerate for 1 hour before cutting.

I have been craving (and I mean craving) chocolate and peppermint lately. I usually satisfy this craving with a peppermint ice cream hot fudge sundae, but I am thinking your peppermint crunch brownies sound fabulous and tomorrow just happens to be grocery shopping day:)
Thanks!
