Complete your Christmas treat buffet with some whipped shortbread, nanaimo bars, and some white chocolate cranberry cookies. Candy cane brownies are easy to make and even easier to eat. We usually cut them into small pieces (half or a quarter of the size you see in the pictures) as we’re always going back to nibble on one more piece. A plate of these brownies sitting on your counter is pretty much impossible to resist.
How to make this recipe for peppermint bark brownies
These tasty treats are an easy-to-make and classic Christmas confection that is sure to spread holiday cheer. Now, all that you have to do is cut the brownies as big or small as you like and dessert is ready! A food processor – A few short pulses will crush the candy canes. Be careful not to blend them too much or they will turn to powder. A rubber mallet – This is our preferred method. Lay a tea towel on your counter and cover it with a piece of parchment paper. Put a few candy canes on top then fold both the parchment paper and tea towel over top. Now give the candy canes a few smacks with a rubber mallet.
Mix ½ cup chopped candy canes into the batter. Stir ½ cup chopped walnuts into the batter. Go big on the chocolate and use milk chocolate instead of white chocolate in the frosting.
