Yield: 6 brownies
Calories: 791cal
Equipment
- Round cookie cutters - I used a 3 inch. wide cutter and it made 6 brownies
Materials
- 1 box fudge brownie mix
- 2 large *eggs
- 3 tbsp. water
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 6 mini candy canes
Decorating suggestions:
- 1 16 oz. Frosting assorted colors like white and green
- 1 2 oz. decorating Icing in tubes red is a good choice
- 1 cup M&Ms
- ½ cup Sprinkles
Instructions
- Mix the brownie mix in a large bowl with oil and eggs mentioned on the back of the box
- Placed non stick foil or heavy duty foil in a 9x13 pan so that it overhangs for lifting later
- *using spray oil is a good idea over the foil
- Pour brownie mix into the pan
- Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until brownies are cooked through
- Cool completely (you can place pan in freezer for 30 minutes or let cool at room temperature for 1 hour)
- Lift foil and brownies out of pan
- Use cookie cutter to make circles
- *If necessary, use kitchen shears to help cut the circles out after using cookie cutter to make shapes
- Set scraps aside for snacking
- Push candy canes into the center of each circle edge
- Decorate with frosting, icing, candy and sprinkles
Notes
Storing - store covered at room temperature for 3 days or covered in the refrigerator for up to 1 week
*if you place it in the refrigerator - candy may take on condensation and become discolored
*To get more brownies from this recipe, use a smaller cookie cutter. I used a 3-inch wide circle and got 6 brownies
