A work in progress. I make hundreds of Christmas cookies every year and I'm working on tweaking this recipe to make mini-brownie cups. I don't intend to using a brownie mix or canned frosting but have used it as a starting point. Let me know what you think.

One pillsbury fudge brownie mix made as directed, except using 1/4 cup Irish Cream instead of the water.

After the brownies are cooled:

Mix 1/3 can of fudge frosting (melted) with about 1/3 cup of kahlua. Glaze brownies.

I used waaaay too much glaze last night, they were good but really rich. And I poured the glaze on when the brownies were hot so the glaze kind of sunk into the brownie and didn't really "set" the way I'd hoped. But like I said, I'm still tweaking. I'm really just looking for proportion. I just used what I had on hand last night. I think it needed a little more irish cream.

For Christmas, I'm going to use mini-muffin cups and maybe dip the tops into a ganache of dark chocolate and kahlua.

Or, maybe make the brownies kahlua and use an Irish cream glaze. Oh decisions decisions laugh laugh laugh

Yeah, and it's probably not legal fare for anyone under 21, either.
