These Peppermint Cheesecake Brownies are so much easier than you think. Remember who you’re dealing with here: if I’m sharing them, it’s because they’re easy! If you really want to make them simple, you could also use a boxed brownie mix instead of making the brownie layer from scratch. Whatever works for you! We’ll be using a 9×13 baking dish for this recipe (lined with parchment paper or sprayed with non-stick spray). Here’s a quick overview of how to make Peppermint Brownies: Brownie Layer Cheesecake Layer (make this while brownies are baking) Assemble Brownies Serving the peppermint cheesecake brownies cold really adds to that cooling effect from the peppermint, which make them extra delicious.

Yes, you should keep these in the refrigerator both before and after serving. Let them sit in there until you serve to get that chilled effect.
