More Christmas baking! This recipe makes about 2 dozen, but you will probably want to double it...they are chewy, chocolatey, and Christmasy. They can be made without the peppermint flavouring if you're a plain chocolate kind of person.
*adapted from Holiday Cheer magazine
3/4 C. sugar
3 Tbsp. melted butter
2 Tbsp. honey
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 large egg white
2/3 C. flour
1/2 C. unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp. baking powder
pinch of salt
Combine sugar, butter, honey, vanilla and egg white. Mix well.
Sift in remaining ingredients to form a sticky dough.
Shape dough into 1-inch balls and place on greased cookie sheet. Press to flatten slightly.
Bake at 350 for about 7-8 minutes or until tops of brownies have cracked slightly. Let cool.
Peppermint Frosting
1 C. icing sugar
1 Tbsp. milk
1 Tbsp. butter, softened
1/2 tsp. peppermint extract
2 oz. white chocolate, melted and cooled
candies for topping (optional)
Mix icing sugar, milk and butter until well combined.
Stir in peppermint and melted white chocolate.
Swirl 1 tsp. of frosting on top of cooled brownies. Top with candies...
or leave white!
These look AMAZING! Need an occasion to try them.
