FAQs
Make-Ahead and Storage
How far in advance can I make these Christmas brownies?
You can easily make these brownies a few days in advance. Store them covered in an airtight container at room temperature
Do I have to use a Piping Bag for this Recipe?
No. If you don’t want to use a piping bag and tip, just snip a little corner out of a zip-tight bag to squeeze the frosting out of
Where can I find Green frosting?
Around the holidays, you can usually find a frosting can called Funfetti. I believe Pillsbury makes it and it’s found in the baking aisles or in a holiday baking section.
If you can’t find green frosting, then use green food coloring to color white frosting
Tips and Tricks:
- easily remove brownies from the pan by lining the pan with parchment paper
- I used a flat tip with a piping bag to decorate my Christmas tree brownies
- you don’t have to have a flat tip, you can just use a baggie with the corner cut out to squeeze out green zig-zags
- use Christmas sprinkles or rainbow sprinkles to decorate the frosting
- a gold star on top is a cute addition
- break candy canes for tree stems
