These peppermint bark brownies are a from-scratch recipe that I love making around the holidays. Scratch that–any time of year, these are a wonderful minty treat!

But back to this beautifully baked white chocolate chip lover’s dream. I mean, just look at all that peppermint white chocolate–it tastes just like crushed peppermint candies on top. And the decadent melted white chocolate frosting (well, bark, but frosting-ish).
Despite the fact that the kids polished off this whole batch, I’m ready for more. So much more.
How to Make Peppermint Bark Brownies
You can, if you’re pressed for time or just want to make this an even more crazy-easy recipe, you are absolutely allowed to use chocolate brownie mix. But, if you’re game, baking these from scratch is going to be amazing.
Just start by preheating your oven and preparing your baking pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, mix up your wet ingredients, while you work up your dry ingredients in a second bowl.
Combine those, then bake until firm in the middle. Don’t do the toothpick inserted trick, because brownies will stick to the toothpick every time.
While those cool completely, make your ganache and then spread that over the cooled brownies. Sprinkle with crushed candy canes or white chocolate peppermint bits and you’re ready to launch yourself into peppermint bark brownie heaven!
