Peppermint Brownie Christmas Pie Recipe

The perfect pie for the holidays - a moist and delicious Peppermint Brownie Pie 

Easy and Delicious Peppermint Brownie Pie

A few weeks ago my guys were headed to their small group Christmas party and everyone was bringing a dish or dessert. I forgot, of course, until about two hours before they were leaving. At that point, I knew I didn't want to have them run to the store and pick up something ready made. While that's a convenient option, it's Christmastime and I wanted to bake something. 

I love to eat cookies, but not so much to bake them. Instead, cakes and pies are my thing. I gathered up what I had on hand and decided this Peppermint Brownie Pie was the way to go.

It's got chocolate (the brownie filling) and peppermint in the form of Andes candies, which, in my opinion, are one of the most amazing candies ever created. 

I also had a big box of pie crusts that I had just bought a few days previously from Sam's Club (or Costco...I can't remember which) so that meant my baking time was cut down and I had just enough time to make this so they could take it to the party nice and warm. 

Why It's a Christmas Pie

I consider it a Christmas pie because, well, it has peppermint so I think that's the only pre-requisite that has to be in place for it to be considered a Christmas Pie
