Santas Red Velvet Brownie Caps
Santas Red Velvet Brownie Caps are a delicious and festive dessert that will impress your guests this holiday season. These brownie caps are a perfect combination of rich chocolate and tangy cream cheese, topped with a cute Santa hat made of strawberries and whipped cream.
To make 12 servings of Santas Red Velvet Brownie Caps, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 box of red velvet brownie mix
- 1/2 cup of vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 8 oz of cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup of sugar
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 12 strawberries
- 1 cup of whipped cream
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with paper liners. In a mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, vegetable oil, and eggs until well blended. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
While the brownies are baking, prepare the cream cheese frosting by mixing the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Once the brownies are done, let them cool completely before removing them from the muffin tin. Spread a dollop of cream cheese frosting on top of each brownie cap.
To make the Santa hats, cut off the tops of the strawberries and place them upside down on top of the cream cheese frosting. Use a piping bag or a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off to pipe a small amount of whipped cream on top of each strawberry to create the pom-pom of the hat.
Santas Red Velvet Brownie Caps are a perfect combination of sweet and tangy flavors, with a moist and chewy texture. The cream cheese frosting adds a creamy richness to the brownies, while the Santa hats made of strawberries and whipped cream make them look festive and adorable. These brownie caps are perfect for holiday parties or as a special treat for your family.
