These apple cupcakes would be a cute gift to give a teacher. I could also see these with green apples along with the red at a Summer party! The apples are milk chocolate brownies dipped in red chocolate with brownie stems.

Brownie Shaped Apple (Back to School Treats)

  • Prepared Cupcakes with white frosting
  • Milk Chocolate Brownie Mix – Bake on Parchment Paper
  • Red Chocolate Melts

  • Cookie Sheet with wax paper

Now, Here’s What You’ll Need To Do:

  • Roll Some little balls out of the prepared brownie. Place the brownie balls onto the wax paper you have ready.
  • Roll out little oblong shapes from the prepared brownie – your stems. Place those on the wax paper.
  • Pop the shapes in the freezer.
  • Prepare your Red Chocolate Melts. I usually microwave mine in a microwave-proof bowl for 1 minute, stir, then microwave for 30 more seconds.
  • Take your brownie shapes out of the freezer, and roll the round brownie shapes into the melted red chocolate. Place these back on the wax paper.

  • Quickly, While the red chocolate is still warm on the round brownie shape (the apples), place the brownie stems into the top of your round brownie shapes. **Not a big deal, if the red chocolate dries before you get to this. Just, add some melted red onto the bottom of the stem, and set it into the apple.
  • Place into the freezer so the chocolate can set.
  • Use green frosting to pipe the leaf onto the apple, or use a paintbrush, and some melted green chocolate to paint a leaf onto the apple.
