Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best results. This means using real butter, dark chocolate, and fresh peppermint extract.
  • Make sure the butter and cream cheese are softened to room temperature before mixing them together. This will help them to combine smoothly and create a creamy texture.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the brownies tough.
  • Bake the brownies in a preheated oven. This will help them to rise evenly and prevent them from sinking in the middle.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before topping them with the whipped cream and crushed candy canes. This will help to prevent the whipped cream from melting.
