Melting Snowman Brownie Squares


Melting Snowman Brownie Squares

Melting Snowman Brownie Squares are the cutest holiday treat you can bake — rich, fudgy brownies topped with marshmallow snowmen “melting” into gooey chocolate. Each snowman gets a little chocolate hat, a cheerful icing face, and a playful melted-snow drizzle. These brownies are perfect for easy Christmas desserts, fun holiday baking projects, and kid-friendly winter treats that readers love during the festive season.

Yield: 12 brownies
Temp: 350°F (175°C)
Time: 30–35 minutes

Key Ingredients First:

  • Brownie batter
  • Marshmallows
  • Chocolate for hats

Ingredients

For the Brownies:

  • 1 box brownie mix (or homemade batter)
  • Ingredients required by the mix (eggs, oil, water)

For the Snowmen:

  • 12 large marshmallows
  • ½ cup melted white chocolate or vanilla icing
  • ¼ cup melted milk chocolate (for hats)
  • Mini M&Ms or sprinkles (buttons)
  • Black and orange icing (for faces)

Instructions

  1. Bake the Brownies
    Prepare the brownie batter according to package or recipe directions.
    Pour into a greased baking pan and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes, or until set.
    Cool completely, then cut into 12 squares.
    This fudgy base is perfect for readers searching for holiday brownie ideas and easy Christmas baking.
  2. Attach the Marshmallows
    Place one large marshmallow in the center of each brownie square.
    The marshmallow will act as the snowman’s “melting” head.
  3. Create the Melted Snow
    Drizzle melted white chocolate or vanilla icing around the base of each marshmallow, letting it naturally drip to mimic melting snow.
    This step gives the cute, melted look popular in winter dessert recipes.
  4. Make the Hats
    Spoon a small dot of melted milk chocolate on top of each marshmallow to form a hat.
    You can add a candy piece on top for a 3D effect.
  5. Add Faces & Buttons
    Use black icing for the eyes and smile, and orange icing for the carrot nose.
    Stick on mini M&Ms or sprinkles as buttons.
  6. Let Set & Serve
    Allow the icing to firm slightly before serving.

Serving Ideas

  • Serve as a centerpiece dessert for holiday gatherings.
  • Package individually for classroom parties or gifts.
  • Pair with hot cocoa or warm milk for the perfect winter treat.

These brownies are ideal for readers searching for cute Christmas treats, kids’ holiday baking, and festive winter desserts that come together easily.


Tips

  • Chill the brownies before decorating for cleaner cuts.
  • Use homemade brownies for an extra decadent version.
