- Bring to a simmer, then remove from heat and pour over 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl.
- Let stand for 2 minutes, then whisk until smooth and glossy.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Spread the peppermint buttercream frosting evenly over the cooled brownies.
- Top with the chocolate ganache frosting, spreading evenly.
