Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boxes of brownie mix (or your favorite double batch of homemade brownies)
- 1-3 jars of white frosting (or homemade buttercream)
- Red and green food coloring (or natural food color alternatives)
- Edible gold stars
- White pearl sprinkles
- Icing bags

Instructions
- Preheat your oven according to your brownie box (usually 325–350°F). Grease a 9-inch springform pan with spray oil or butter.
- Mix both boxes of brownie mix according to package instructions and pour the batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the brownie cool completely.
- Remove the brownie from the pan and place it on a cutting board. Carefully cut into 8 even triangles.
- Tint your white frosting one red, one green, and leave one white.
- Fill piping bags with each color and attach a frosting tip.
- Decorate half the brownies as Christmas trees with green frosting, pearl sprinkles, and a gold star.
- Decorate the other half like Santa hats using red and white frosting.

Let brownies cool completely before decorating to avoid melted frosting. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Freeze undecorated brownies for up to 2 months.
