Using prepared and cooled brownies. To make the trees, cut triangles by cutting the brownies in half lengthwise, and then cut each half into 10 even triangles – about 2” spaced on the bottoms of the triangles.

Gently break the loop off of the candy canes and insert the candy into the base to make the “tree trunk”. Be careful not to break the brownie.

Pull out about 1 1/2 cup of frosting. I like to reserve some plain frosting in case I need to add more frosting after mixing the coloring in the frosting. Add food coloring to get your desired color. Start with a little bit of coloring, and add more as you mix. If you see it get too dark you can add more frosting back in, but you should be good if you add a little at a time and mix well.

Put a petal piping tip inside a piping bag and add the prepared frosting. If you don't one just use a sandwich ziplock bag and cut a small edge off of it to use for piping.

Start at the bottom of the tree and frost row by row. Piping the icing slowly as you go. Put the open part of the tip to be facing the base of the tree to give it a full look or if using a ziplock bag just make wave lines for each row of tree branches.

Once you're finished frosting the trees, sprinkle the nonpareil sprinkles or christmas sprinkles on top of the frosting. Now you're ready to serve.
