Saw It, Pinned It, Did It: Peppermint Pattie Brownies

Two dessert SPD posts in a row?  That's not good for my getting healthy routine.  But it's Valentine's Day and I made these super cute, super yummy treats to share with my co-workers (and for Kevin to share with his co-workers), so that makes it ok, since I'm sharing.  Right?

I read the recipe and realized how easy these were and thought I had to make them for Valentine's Day.

Here's what you need:
Brownie Mix
Muffin Pan
Grease/Nonstick Spray
Vegetable Oil
Eggs
Water
Peppermint Patties (and I used Hershey's Chocolate Hearts, because Kevin doesn't like Peppermint Patties)

Step 1:  Mix brownie mix according to directions.

Step 2:  Grease muffin pan(s)

Step 3:  Pour brownie mix in to muffin pan, filling about half way (mine aren't pretty, and that's ok).

Step 4:  Bake for about 18-20 minutes.  I ended up doing about 20 minutes, but each oven is different, so make sure you check them.

Step 5:  Unwrap your candies while the brownies are baking.

Step 6:  When the brownies are done, smush candy into middle of each brownie.  Mine started to melt, so I put the muffin pan in the freezer for a few minutes to stop the melting.

Step 7:  After they cool, pop them out of the muffin pan and enjoy!
