This recipe can be as fancy or as simple as you want, depending on the type of brownies you make. We used our favorite homemade chocolate brownie recipe as the base of this dessert, but feel free to use brownie mix instead. Tbh, this peppermint white chocolate frosting would be amazing on pretty much anything. You could even sub out the brownies for cookies or even… brookies! The delicious options are endless.
