I feel like it has been way too long since I posted a tasty recipe and I was past due for one. I checked my archives, and I was right, it has been way too long since I posted some type of dessert. Well, that oversight is fixed today. These easy and delicious peppermint bark brownies are my way of making it up to you. However, since it’s not very practical to actually make them and send them to all of you, all I can do is offer you pictures and a recipe. Which, on the plus side, means zero calories.

The base of these brownies is just your favorite brownie recipe. Now, I was out of brownie mix when I made these and I was too lazy to drive to the store for one thing. So, I made these from scratch–which is a rarity around here–but you could of course use your favorite store-bought brownie mix. I won’t tell anyone, wink wink.
what makes these brownies special
After you’ve baked your brownies you let them cool completely. Then, sprinkle crushed candy canes on top. For a 9 x 13″ pan, two to three candy canes are the perfect amount. To really take these peppermint bark brownies up a notch, melt some white and milk chocolate and drizzle over the top. Once the chocolate has hardened, you’re done! What a festive and easy treat to bring to a holiday party this year!

Peppermint and chocolate is such an amazing combination! This is like the cake version of peppermint bark. Sounds delish!

I know, right? There's a such a short window where treats like this are acceptable. For example, you might get strange looks if you made it for Easter. 🙂
Peppermint, good. Brownies, good. it's hard to screw up that combination, right? 🙂
These are legit one of my favorite things to make! Although mine never turn out quite as pretty as those seemed too! Great job!
Those are gorgeous! They are on my goodie list this year actually.
Pinning this and planning to make it for a holiday gathering coming up. I love that it's festive, tasty, and most of all EASY. That's my kind of Holiday treat. 😉
Oh yum! These sound amazing! So pretty and they look delicious!
Those look so delicious, Justine!! Totally going to pin!!
These look so good! I feel like putting drizzle on top of any kind of brownie or bar cookie just makes it taste (and look) so much better. Plus…chocolate. So there’s that. 😉
