Ingredients Nutrition
Brownies
- 1 (19 1/2 ounce) box fudge brownie mix
- 1⁄2 cup butter, melted
- 1⁄4 cup water
- 2 eggs
- 1⁄4 teaspoon peppermint extract
Peppermint Buttercream Frosting
- 1⁄3 cup butter, softened
- 1 1⁄2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1⁄4 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1⁄4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chocolate Frosting
- 1⁄3 cup whole milk
- 1⁄4 cup butter
- 1 (12 ounce) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Directions
- Preheat oven to 325. Then prepare a 9x9 inch baking dish by spraying lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Cut a piece of parchment paper to the width of the bottom of your pan but long enough to extend over the edge of the right and left sides of the pan.
- Sift brownie mix to eliminate any clumps. Then add melted butter, water eggs and 1/4 teaspoon of peppermint extract. Mix by hand just until dry ingredients are incorporated.
- Pour into prepared pan. Bake according to package directions. Let cool.
- Beat together cup powdered sugar and 1/2 cup softened butter. Mix in another 1/2 cup powdered sugar, then add 1 tablespoon milk and peppermint and vanilla extracts. Spread frosting evenly over the top. Place brownies in fridge to firm up frosting.
- Bring 1/3 cup milk and 1/4 cup butter almost to a boil over medium heat. Pour chocolate chips into a heat-safe bowl. Pour milk mixture over the top and let sit for 5 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla and whisk until smooth. Use an electric mixer to beat in 1 cup powdered sugar until frosting is smooth. This will make more than you need, so remove 1/4-1/3 cup frosting and reserve for another use.
- Spread chocolate frosting over the white frosting on the brownies.
- Place back in fridge for about an hour to firm up frosting. Remove brownies from pan and slice into 9 pieces.
