Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving the edges to hang over the side of the pan.

In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and peppermint extract. Whisk in the cocoa powder and flour. Finally, fold in the chopped peppermint bark and white chocolate chips.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the center is set but still fudgy inside. Top with extra peppermint bark and white chocolate chips when still hot, if desired. Let brownies cool a bit before lifting them out of the pan using the overhanging parchment paper and slicing to serve. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Chocolate Tempering Magic 🍫
Melt white chocolate chips using a double boiler method to prevent scorching and ensure a smooth, glossy texture for your fudge layer.
Peppermint Bark Distribution 🍬
Chop peppermint bark into varying sizes - some fine pieces for even distribution and some larger chunks for surprise bursts of flavor in each bite.
Brownie Moisture Mastery 💧
Don't overmix the batter - stop mixing as soon as dry ingredients are incorporated to ensure a fudgy, tender brownie texture.
Extract Intensity Control 🧪
Start with half the recommended peppermint extract and taste, as the intensity can vary between brands - you can always add more, but can't take it away.
Perfect Cutting Technique 🔪
Use a hot, clean knife wiped with a warm, damp cloth between cuts to get clean, beautiful brownie squares without crumbling.
