PEPPERMINT-FUDGE BROWNIE MIX
This mix is so pretty when packaged as a gift, with the crushed peppermints sparkling against the dark chocolate colors. I like to print the baking instructions neatly on an index card to include with the mix, and decorate with Christmas stickers. -Barbara Burge, Los Gatos, California

- Add in the peppermint extract and crushed candy canes at the end of the mixing process to prevent the peppermint flavor from overwhelming the chocolate.
- Bake the brownies in a 9x13 inch pan for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them into squares. This will help prevent them from falling apart.
- For a festive presentation, sprinkle the brownies with crushed candy canes or drizzle them with melted white chocolate.
