Strawberry Christmas Tree Brownie Bites

By Vanetta

These lil Christmas tree brownie bites are adorable! Brownie bites are topped with a strawberry with green frosting to look like a decorated Christmas tree. The piping takes a little work but the skill level is easy. I had a blast making these and they taste great too!

Ingredients

• Your favorite brownie recipe, halved
• Batch of pipeable frosting (I used cream cheese frosting because it’s delicious)
• 24 small-medium strawberries
• Yellow fondant or star-shaped sprinkles
• Small ball shaped candy decorations
• Disco dust, optional

Preparation

Step 1

Bake your brownies in greased mini-muffin tins filled up 3/4 of the way. You’re going to have to shorten the baking time a bit, so just keep your eyes on them as they bake, they’re done when a cake tester comes out clean.

As the brownies are baking and cooling, put together your frosting and dye it green.

Once baked and cooled, secure the strawberries to the brownies with a dab of frosting.

Put frosting in a piping bag fit with a small star tip, and cover the entire strawberry by starting at the strawberry, applying a bit of pressure, and pulling away gently to a nice point

Feel free to use boxed brownie mix, canned frosting, and whatever other shortcuts you can come up with during this busy time of year! I ended up with more brownie batter than I had strawberries, so I just baked off a few extra and decorated them with frosting without strawberries.
