Just made these this afternoon and can honestly say I now have an GREAT brownie recipe (I've been looking for one for a long time)! The shiny top is a really nice touch. If one wanted peppermint-flavored brownies, how much extract should one add? I tried adding some to a brownie recipe 6 months ago, and I must've added too much...it was horrible. Now that I have a new favorite recipe, I can't wait to try it!
Kelly, if you had peppermint oil, I think MAYBE 1/4 tsp. would be enough - but extract - start with 1/2 teaspoon and see. Taste the batter, and see what you think before baking. Next step - hmmm - peppermint patties melting on top??? PJH
