Ingredients
- 1 Box Enjoy Life Brownie Mix
- 2 Tbsp Oil, as directed on box (I used avocado oil)
- 3/4 Cup Water, as directed on Box
For the truffle frosting:
- 6 Tbsp Avocado, mashed (86g)
- 4 Tbsp Cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp Pure peppermint extract
- 1/4 tsp Vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 Cup Enjoy Life Mini Chocolate Chips
- Crushed candy canes, for garnish (optional, but recommended)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and rub the bottom of an 8-inch cast-iron skillet with oil.
- Prepare the Enjoy Life Brownie Mix according to the package directions, using the oil and water.
- Once mixed, pour the brownie into the prepared pan and bake until a tooth pick inserted 2 inches from the side of the pan comes out clean, about 30-33 minutes.
- While the brownie bakes, place the mashed avocado, cocoa powder, peppermint & vanilla extracts and a pinch of salt into a SMALL food processor (mine is 3 cups) and blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary.
- Place the chocolate chips into a small, microwave-safe container/bowl and microwave on half power, using 30 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth and melted.
- Add the melted chocolate chips into the food processor and blend until smooth and combined.
- Once the brownie bakes, spread on the truffle frosting and sprinkle with crushed candy canes.
- DEVOUR immediately!
