18.7ouncepackage of brownie mixFamily size, for a 13" x 9" pan
⅔cupvegetable oil
2eggs
¼cupwater
24miniature York Peppermint Patties
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray a 13" x 9" pan with cooking spray.
Prepare brownie mix according to package instructions. The amounts listed in the ingredients list are typical or common box mixes. The exact amounts may vary by the brand used.
Pour half of the mix (or a little less) and carefully spread to coat the bottom of the pan. Unwrap your peppermint patties and line them up in the pan, 6 x 4. Pour remaining batter over the patties, carefully, and spread so all candy is covered.
Place in the oven for about 18-20 minutes. Watch closely as they finish. You don't want the candy to bubble up out of the top of the brownies. Just trust me on that one. (Ovens do vary. You can check the center with a toothpick for doneness; the brownies may take longer to reach desired doneness, but will be gooey.)
Allow to cool, and refrigerate for several hours to allow the candy to set. Let the brownies come to room temperature before cutting and serving.
Notes
These brownies are intended to be ooey-gooey. They may take longer to bake, so use the times given as a guide. Check for doneness with a toothpick inserted into the brownie part (not the candy).
