Description
Delicious festive brownies shaped like Santa hats, perfect for holiday gatherings.
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix (or homemade brownie recipe for an 8×8-inch pan)
- As required eggs, oil, and water (as required by the brownie mix)
- Store-bought or homemade red icing
- For decorating white icing or whipped cream
- For greasing butter or non-stick spray
Instructions
- Prepare Brownies:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease an 8×8 inch baking pan with butter or non-stick spray.
In a mixing bowl, prepare the brownie mix according to the package instructions (generally involves mixing in eggs, oil, and water).
- Bake Brownies:
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting.
- Cut the Brownies:
Once cooled, cut the brownies into equal-sized triangles to resemble Santa hats.
- Decorate:
Use red icing to create the main body of the Santa hat on each brownie triangle.
Pipe white icing at the base and top to mimic the fluffy parts of a Santa hat.
Notes
- Ensure brownies are fully cooled before decorating to prevent icing from melting.
- For a homemade touch, make your own red and white icing using food coloring and vanilla buttercream.
- Add decorative sprinkles or edible glitter for additional holiday flair.
- Store decorated brownies in the refrigerator if using whipped cream instead of icing to maintain freshness.
