Candy Cane Icing - December, 2023.

Santa would prefer this to a cookie!

Your elves and co-workers will also love this iced brownie.

I add ½ cup of white chocolate chips to my brownie batter
(check out my basic brownie recipe February, 2023).

  • Icing Ingredients
  • ¾ cup white chocolate chips
  • ½ cup confectioners’ sugar
  • ½ cup crushed candy canes
    (1-2 large peppermint candy canes)
  • This is for a 9” square pan of brownies
  • Directions
  • Put the candy canes (without wrapping) in a plastic bag.
  • Cover the bag with a towel and pound with a hammer or rolling pin.
  • Crush into tiny pieces. Set aside.
  • Make the icing – melt the white chocolate chips in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan, stirring constantly.
  • When melted, stir in the confectioners’ sugar and whisk the icing until smooth.
  • Spread the icing over the brownies and top off with the crushed candy cane bits.
  • Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before cutting.
  • 12-16 pieces
