Bake the brownies as per the instructions on your recipe baked in an 8" x 8" pan
While it is baking, prepare the vegan ganache
Crush the candy canes
Once the brownie is completely cooled, pour the vegan ganache and then layer with about ¾ cup (*or more to your taste) of the crushed candy canes
Refrigerate to set to firm
Whip the vegan whipped cream and spread over the entire cold brownie, sprinkle with more crushed candy canes
Notes
Because of the whipped cream fudge mint brownies must be kept refrigeratedIf you do not use the whipped cream the brownies can stay at room temperature covered for up to 4 daysEither way, refrigerate for up to 10 days, wrapped to prevent drying.Brownies freeze for up to 2 months but will be very messy from condensation melting the candy canes upon thawing.It's best to freeze un-iced brownies
