Blonde Brownie Santa Hat Christmas Dessert
Equipment
- piping bag with a star tip attached
- large mixing bowl
- Non stick aluminum foil
- 2 (9 inch) round pie pans
- Serrated bread knife
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour all-purpose
- 2 cups light brown sugar packed
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- ½ cup butter (unsalted) melted and cooled
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1/2-1 tsp. liquid red food coloring
Decorating
- 1 16 oz. white frosting
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
- In mixing bowl, Mix the flour, sugar and baking powder
- Add to the mixed dry ingredients, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla and red food coloring
- Mix well
- The mixture will be like a play dough consistency
- Line pie plate with foil – non-stick side facing up
- Pour the mixture into the pie pan and press it out to even it out at the top
- Line pie plates with foil – non-stick side facing up
- Dividing the mixture between both pie plates…Pour the mixture into the pie pans and press it out to even it out at the top
- Bake for about 25-30 minutes
- When are they done?
- These brownies are thick, so they take a bit longer to bake. Once you start to smell the aroma of your brownies, check on them. A toothpick inserted into the middle should come out mostly clean. What I mean by that is; you shouldn’t have a wet batter on the toothpick. You will probably find cooked batter will adhere to the toothpick and that’s ok
Decorating
- Let the brownies cool completely – about 15 minutes
- Pull the aluminum foil up and out of the pie pan
- Push the aluminum foil down away from the brownies
- Let the brownies completely cool
- Slice each set of brownies into 8-10 slices
- Using the star tip, decorate the bottom of the slice and the top with your white frosting stars to resemble a Santa Hat
- Cover and store leftover brownies at room temperature up to one week.

Happy Holidays!
