I have not been able to get this recipe to work for me. If the patties are at all cracked, the filling all melts and you can't see or taste the patties when you cut the brownies. I may try it one more time because others give it rave reviews.

This is Christmas time favorite for our family at home and to bring to others. I usually double to recipe for one batch so the brownies are thicker.

Hello! It's my first time writing here and i have a question..I live in Greece and i can't find peppermint patties here! What can i do? How can i replace it? Or how can i make something similar and then use it in the recipe? Thank you..

I made these for my mother-in-law, who loves mint. They were especially delicious.

Hi tracyjw--I haven't tried these cookies, but I used to live in England and I know that, while there aren't York peppermint patties, Bendick's makes an incredibly rich and delicious (though less sweet) version of a peppermint patty. I think they're called Peppermint Cremes. The idea is that it's a very rich mint fondant candy center, covered in dark chocolate. Could work really well!

Peppermint patties have a soft white mint-flavored cream center with a dark chocolate coating. This recipe uses the small coin-sized ones, about 1-1/2 inch in diameter. I won 2nd. place at our County Fair for these. Use the smallest patties you can find.

To tracyjw: a peppermint patty is like a really big, round After Eight dinner mint. It's basically peppermint fondant that shaped into a round patty, then coated with plain dark chocolate.

Can any one tell me what are peppermint patties, as i live in England and am not sure what they are. I am going to make these as they sound absolutely scrummy,

this is by far the best brownie recipe i've tasted - and oh so easy to make; i don't even dirty a bowl, i make the entire recipe in a pot! the first time i made them, the peppermints melted and i could only taste them - not see them. since then, i've left out the peppermints.

As lovers of the chocolate mint combo, my family and I loved these. I made them over the holidays for cookie trays. I did cut them smaller because they're so rich but very delicious and got rave reviews. I even made them twice! You don't need all the peppermint patties though.
