Easy Christmas Tree Brownies
These Christmas Tree Brownies are SO EASY and don’t they look adorable?! Just cut the brownies into triangles, add a candy cane trunk, squeeze on some icing, and sprinkle on your favourite toppings! Seal them in an air tight container, and the icing will harden overnight. They travel well and make a great treat for a Christmas party! Oh, and did I mention, they make me SO HAPPY!

- Add your favourite sprinkles and a small star sprinkle at the top.
- Enjoy!
