Peppermint essential oil. Oh how I love thee. I will wear it. I will smell it. But most yummy of all.. I will eat it. Peppermint is so easy to infuse into a baking dish for that delicious hint of mint. And best of all.. It doesn't take much!! This recipe calls for exactly 3 drops of Peppermint.. for the whole batch!!
Directions: Pour into a 9 x 13 pan and bake at 350 degrees, for 25-30 min.
Want another fabulous twist on this recipe that is much healthier?? I substituted the sugar, butter, and flour for healthier options, making this a not-so-much-cheat treat! I also had to double the essential oil drops to make the flavor more prominent.
Directions: Pour into a 9 x 13 pan and bake at 350 degrees, for 25-30 min.
And just because I think you need to have the origin of where both of these recipes started, here is my from-scratch brownie recipe that I have been using for years. Unrefined coconut oil has the essence of coconut and adds just the right amount of flavor to this recipe.
Directions: Pour into a 9 x 13 pan and bake at 350 degrees, for 25-30 min.
