Chocolate Peppermint Loaf Bread

November 7, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 22 Comments

Howdy Partners,

I told you I’d be back with another peppermint recipe!!  I am officially addicted to peppermint.  It’s horrible!!  No it’s not, who am I fooling?  I love peppermint!!  And I love peppermint with chocolate even more!!!

This bread is amazing!!  It’s sweet, chocolaty and has little surprises of mint chocolate chips in it!!  It’s like eating a big chocolate brownie, just a tad healthier!!   During baking, the smell of my house was like Christmas, it smelled like a big mug of hot chocolate with a slight aroma of candy canes.  Oh man, I couldn’t wait for the bread to be done.  My Husbands friend came over and I told him if he waited 10 minutes, I’d give him some bread.  He did, I gave it to him while it was still hot and soft.  He smelled it and was like OMG!  He said I shouldn’t eat this.  I told him go ahead.  It’s not to bad for you.  I don’t like to tell people something is healthy, otherwise they won’t want to eat it!  Strange I know!


About 15 minutes after my Husbands friend left our house, my Husband and I were walking to the store and my Hubby got a text message from his friend.  His friend said “tell Jen the bread is excellent ”  Yah!!!  I told my Husband he just left our house, the bread was still hot!  lol, I guess he couldn’t wait! This bread is really delicious.  I can see heating it up in the microwave and putting a dollop of vanilla ice cream on it and maybe some peppermint whip cream.  This bread would make such a great dessert!!

My Husband took the bread to work, and I asked him what he thought, and he loved the chocolate chips in it.  He said they were little bites of pudding.  I was a little unsure if the bread would be chewy, but he said it wasn’t.  He said he loved it.  I asked if he shared him mini loaf, he said nope!  I told him I have one more mini loaf left and I was going to take it to work, he said, NO!  It’s mine!  I guess he really did like it.  One thing about my Husband is he is brutally honest about something that he does’t like and I always share his opinion with you, so when I say he liked it, he really did like it!!

Well that’s it for me to go!  It’s getting late and I still have to pack lunch!  I hate packing lunch, normally it’s a salad and I that means cutting veggies!!  Maybe I should have a PBandJ sandwich?  I haven’t had one of those in a while.

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    That looks delicious! I am addicted to Trader Joe’s Chocolate Peppermint loaf cake, (a new mix) and now thanks to you I can make a healthier version 🙂 Do you think vanilla Greek yogurt would be okay to use instead of plain? Also, could I substitute white whole wheat flour for the whole wheat pastry flour? I have both those items on hand now 🙂 I saved some mint chocolate chips from Xmas last year..Thank you!

      If you sub vanilla yogurt I think it would taste wonderful. I don’t see any issues with subbing the flour either. I saw TJ’s loaf cake, but was to afraid to try it! I heard it tastes amazing!

        Thank you! Yes, the Trader Joe’s mix is fantastic and addictive 🙂 I made a loaf for a friend, and he said he finished half of it in one day!

        Do you have a recipe for Peppermint Mocha coffee? I will have to go back and look through your recipes. Thanks !

    Hi Jennifer!
    Is the calories for 15 slices based off each mini loaf having 15 slices, or one big loaf having 15 slices?
    Can’t wait to make this!

      Good morning! Its 15 slices for the whole recipe. If you make mini loafs, it is 5 slices per loaf or if you make a big loaf, its 15 slices. If you make it let me know what you think of it.

    Looks fantastic!! Are your nutritional values calculated using whole eggs or egg substitute? How much difference does that make? I’ve never used the egg substitute, so I don’t have any idea of how it compares to eggs.
    Can’t wait to try this one.

      I used egg substitute which is 25 calorie per serving, which is one egg. The brand I used is Reddi Egg. which I purchased at Trader Joe’s. I use it all the time in my cooking and no one notices the difference. Matter in fact my picky step-daughter loves cheesy egg omelets but we were out of eggs, so I told her to use the egg substitute and believe me she didn’t want to, and after she tried the first bite, she said it tastes the same as an egg. I was skeptical at first, but I love egg substitute. If you try the bread, let me know what you think!

    So, is that 1/3 cup each dark chocolate chips and mint chocolate chips, or a total of 1/3 of MIXED dark chocolate chips and mint chocolate chips?

      Hi Brenda! I got the Tollhouse mix of dark chocolate chip with mints in it, so a 1/3 cup total. 🙂

    Looks wonderful–I’m going to make this tonight. But one question: a *tablespoon* of vanilla? That’s a LOT of vanilla for one loaf.

Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view o Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view of my kitchen. What’s so rare about it! It’s clean. 🤣 
.
So this weekend our refrigerator broke. The freezer no longer works and the fridge is not getting cool enough. Ugh!! We bought our Whirlpool refrigerator about 4 years ago and spent near $3000 for it. It sure didn’t last long. 
.
After reading reviews on a million refrigerators, they all seem like crap. I need your help! Do you have a refrigerator that you recommend? 
.
I saw a Frigidaire one that we are debating on, but not sure? The reviews are good, but says, they were collected from a promotion. So I’m not sure how much I trust that? Anyway, any recommendations that you have would be great! 
.
Have a great day!

I have been decorating the house for Easter and Spring. I love how this little space turned out. I am loving the bright pastels. I added my new bunny/chick pillow that I got from @12timbers. It matches so perfectly and it’s so cute. I also couldn’t resist the chick pillow from Target.

Have the best day!

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I mus Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I must say I was disappointed in the Super Bowl. I really wanted the 49ers to win. Anyway, this weekend I refreshed my guest bathroom.
🐰
I have to say my new favorite item is the towel holder. It’s so cute and practical. I don’t have a hand towel rack and I hated leaving my towels on my counter. I saw the towel holder from Target and had to get it. It’s the Hearth and Hand brand.
🐰
I added some bunnies for Spring and a touch of pink for some color. The hand towels are from Homegoods. They have so many bunnies and Easter decor. I had to control myself because I was with my husband. I may go back. 
🐰
Have a great day!!

Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still h Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still have Christmas in my kitchen.😳 I don’t know where to put it, so I haven’t taken it down. It’s not a lot, but just enough to where I can’t fit it. Ugh!  Please tell me I’m not the only one. 
💕
I did do one little spot for Valentines, which I think is so cute. I love decorating with Valentines candy. I can’t resist the pinks and the conversation hearts. I do not plan on going all out decorating this season, as time is going so fast, but I may add some hearts here and there. 
💕
Do you decorate for Valentine’s Day?

Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is the time to get your chores done, so when the warmer weather arrives you can enjoy it. My goal is to refresh my bedroom. I am slowly getting rid of stuff that I no longer need and slowly adding new decor. So hopefully in a few weeks it will be done. #twopageshome
♥️
The first thing I added are these stunning customized curtains that I was gifted from @twopagescurtains. Guys, I’m in love! The curtains are just so pretty! I am loving the way it shades the sun, but still lets the light in. Exactly the look I was going for.
♥️
The curtains I chose are the “Liz Linen Drape Soft”. They are a linen curtain that is environmentally friendly, hypoallergenic, long lasting, dust preventative, and breathable. They are also wrinkle free. I didn’t have to steam them. They came right out of the package ready to hang. They also come in 38 colors and 7 shadings to choose from. There is an option for everyone.
♥️
I’ll be honest I was intimidated on ordering custom curtains. I was so afraid I would order them wrong, but I didn’t. Two Pages has a measurement finder that asks you a few easy questions and boom you have your custom curtain size. It was so simple.
♥️
If you are looking for some new curtains or shades for your home, I highly recommend Two Page Curtains. I absolutely love them. They were kind enough to give my followers an 8% discount code: PBANDP. Link in bio
♥️
Are you planning on refreshing any spaces?

Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday sea Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday season. I am slowly working on taking my Christmas decor down. I still have my tree up, but I love the twinkling lights, and the real reason is I need my husband to get the box out of the garage. lol 
💙
I am going with blues in the living room. I just find blue calming and peaceful. The first area I styled is the coffee table. Sorry about the views. I have a small, thin living room.
💙
I decided to go light on the decor and add some fresh faux greenery. I hate leaving the remote controls out, so I decided to store them in a decorative box. Everything here, but the white box was bought at Target. 
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. It was low key for us, as it was just my husband and I. We had dinner at my daughters house on Christmas Eve. That was nice. 
🎄
I am sharing my last view of my living room before I take down my Christmas decor. I will leave some of the winter type greens, but I think I’m going to add some blues. I have always liked blue after the holidays. It just gives the room a light and clean look.
🎄
I want to say sorry for lack of posting. It’s just so time consuming engaging. I hate spending countless hours on my phone. It has made me physically lazy and it hurts my eyes. I have put on so much weight because all I do is sit. I really need to change this habit. Anyway! I hope you have a wonderful day!!!
