Chocolate + Peppermint = Love!
Everyone in my family LOVES these peppermint brownies! Probably because we love the chocolate and peppermint combo. It’s a classic flavor pairing, especially around Christmas, and a reason why we make these every December. Another reason is the gorgeous layers! We love to show this dessert off at family gatherings and on goodie plates!! Brownies are awesome year-round, but I love making festive brownie recipes like these during the holidays along with our Brownie Christmas Trees and Peppermint Brownie Trifle.
