Ingredients
For the brownies:
- ¾ cup butter unsalted
- 1 ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder dark chocolate
- 3 egg large
For the Frosting:
- ½ cup butter softened, unsalted
- 1 ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 Tablespoon milk
- ¼ teaspoon peppermint extract
- 36-48 chocolate candies Peppermint Hershey Kiss
- Sprinkles
Instructions
- In a large, microwave safe bowl, heat butter until melted (about 1 minute).
- Add sugar, flour, and cocoa. Mix with a wooden spoon until fully combined, about 2 minutes. Add eggs and blend completely!!
- Spray mini muffin tins with non-stick baking spray. Scoop a large tablespoon into each muffin cavity. Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 9-11 minutes. Allow brownies to cool in pans about 10-15 minutes, then remove and cool completely on a wire rack, before frosting.
- For the frosting, beat butter, powdered sugar, milk and peppermint extract for 4 minutes on high until fluffy. Spoon into a decorating bag with a tip (any tip is fine). Pipe one circle of frosting onto each cooled brownie. Top immediately with sprinkles and a Hershey Kiss.
- Store in a covered container at room temperature for 3-5 days. ENJOY.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Pour the batter into a square glass baking dish to make regular brownies. You will need to add a bit of baking time though! And don’t forget to wait until the brownies cool completely before you cut them into bars.
- Once frosted, transfer the peppermint brownie bites to an airtight container and store at room temperature. They’ll keep well for about 3 days.
- Brownie bites are perfect for freezer storage. I prefer to freeze them unfrosted in freezer-safe bags. When ready to serve, let thaw at room temperature and top with frosting and kisses.
