- Grease and line the base and sides of a 9”square tin and preheat oven to 160 fan.
- To make the brownies, place the baking spread in a small saucepan over a medium heat to melt. Once melted, add the chocolate drops and stir to dissolve. Set to one side to cool.
- Whisk the eggs and sugars together until thick and mousse like. Add the chocolate mixture and whisk well.
- Sift the flour and cocoa powder on top of the brownie mix and gently fold through. Add the mint extract and pour into tin. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the brownie has a slight wobble in the centre. Leave to cool in the tin.
- To make the ganache topping place the cream and chocolate in a microwaveable bowl and heat on 20 second bursts and mix until melted. Pour over cooled brownie.
- Roughly chop a couple of candy canes and scatter on top of the ganache along with some Christmas sprinkles. Pop brownie in the fridge to chill then slice into 16 pieces.
