Peppermint Patty Frosted Brownies

A perfect treat for St. Patrick’s Day, these Peppermint Patty Frosted Brownies perfectly combine the flavors of mint and chocolate

Well, it’s almost St. Patrick’s Day & since I hadn’t yet made a recipe, I decided to go ahead and do a little baking. These Peppermint Patty Frosted Brownies are super easy to make – they’re a box mix with some yummies added in. Then topped with pretty much the inside of a peppermint patty, just colored green.

They are awesome.

Servings 16 brownies

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

for the mint brownies:

• 1 pouch 10.25 ounces fudge brownie mix*
• eggs oil & water required for mix
• 1 cup winter chip mix dark chocolate & mint morsels**

for the peppermint patty frosting:

• 6 ounces sweetened condensed milk
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 2 teaspoons peppermint extract
• green food coloring

Instructions

 

for the brownies:

• Cook brownies according to package directions, folding in the mint & chocolate chips to the batter prior to baking. Allow to cool almost completely before frosting.

for the frosting:

• Mix the sweetened condensed milk, powdered sugar, peppermint extract and a few drops of green food coloring until combined - use as much or as little as you like until you get the color you want.
• Once the brownies have pretty much cooled, spread the frosting out evenly over the brownies. Cut into squares to serve. Top with a squeeze of Hershey's chocolate sauce if desired.

Notes

*this is the Betty Crocker pouch that makes an 8x8 pan of brownie - typically around $1. If you use a full size brownie mix or homemade recipe, you'll want to adjust the frosting amounts to make more

**this is the Nestle Tollhouse Winter Limited Edition mix - still had some leftover from the holidays
