Ingredients

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for pan

8 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped

1 cup sugar

3/4 teaspoon salt

3 large eggs

1/2 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

25 small (1 1/2 inch) peppermint patties

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on all sides; butter foil. Set aside.

2. Place chocolate and butter in a medium heatproof bowl set over (not in) a saucepan of gently simmering water. Stir occasionally just until melted, 4 to 5 minutes.

3. Remove from heat. Whisk in sugar and salt until smooth; whisk in eggs. Gently whisk in flour and cocoa powder just until smooth (do not overmix).

4. Spread 1/3 of batter in prepared pan. Arrange peppermint patties on batter in a single layer, leaving a narrow border on all sides. Top with remaining batter, and smooth surface. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 45 to 55 minutes.

5. Cool completely in pan. Use foil to lift from pan; peel off foil and discard. Cut into 16 squares (4 rows by 4 rows).
