Is there anything better than baking for the holidays? These Christmas Tree Brownie treats are super kid friendly and fun to make with kids.
These festive holiday brownie trees are the perfect treat for the holidays and it’s a great recipe to make with your kids, too!
The best part about these treats (besides their cuteness and deliciousness) is that they can be made ahead of time or even frozen between layers of parchment paper in an air-tight container. I can almost guarantee that you will finish them all though!
These brownie trees are small in size but can be made in advance and stored for several weeks, so you could even make them around Thanksgiving to have later.
I love to bake all season long, even on the weekdays. Something about the holiday season turns me into a baking maniac! I love the challenge of whipping up my favorite recipes in mini form, too.
Instead of buying Christmas cookies, I decided to make some with my toddler – something we could enjoy together. She’s been really curious about what I do in the kitchen lately so she was happy she could get her hands on this one. A few of her friends came over and we all made trees together.
It was so much fun! And it doesn’t have to be just for the little ones. Make them with your friends during a holiday party, or as a surprise for your family during brunch after opening presents on Christmas morning. Whatever the case may be, I hope you enjoy this amazing recipe and make it for years to come!
When it comes to holiday treats, this one is super fun to make with the kids. It’s a sweet treat that is great for holiday parties, or even holiday movies!
