Peppermint-Fudge Brownie Mix image

This mix is so pretty when packaged as a gift, with the crushed peppermints sparkling against the dark chocolate colors. I like to print the baking instructions neatly on an index card to include with the mix, and decorate with Christmas stickers. -Barbara Burge, Los Gatos, California
