Once cooled:

Lift the entire brownie slab out of the pan.
Use a sharp knife to cut the brownies into long diagonal strips.
Cut each strip into triangular shapes resembling small Christmas trees.

You should get 16–20 mini trees, depending on size.

Optional: Trim edges for clean shapes — the scraps make delicious snacks!

4. Insert the Sticks (Tree Trunks)

Carefully push a popsicle stick or the curved end of a mini candy cane into the bottom center of each brownie triangle.

The brownies must be chilled for this step or they may break.

5. Decorate the Christmas Trees

This is where the magic happens!

How to Decorate:

Melt green candy melts in the microwave (20-second intervals).
Transfer melted candy into a piping bag or drizzle with a spoon.
Create zig-zag “garland” across each tree.
Add mini candies as ornaments.
Place a star sprinkle at the top of each tree.
For a snowy effect, drizzle melted white chocolate.
Add edible glitter for sparkle.

Let the decorated trees set on parchment paper until the chocolate hardens.

🎉 Presentation & Serving Ideas

Christmas Tree Brownie Pops look stunning when arranged:

Standing upright in a styrofoam block like a forest
Laid out on a white platter with powdered sugar snowfall
Wrapped individually in clear treat bags with festive ribbons
Added to hot cocoa stations or dessert buffet tables

These pops hold beautifully at room temperature and remain chewy and fudgy for days.

🎄 Storage & Make-Ahead Tips

Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
Refrigerator: Lasts up to 7 days but may dry slightly — store tightly wrapped.
Freezer: Freeze undecorated brownies for up to 3 months; thaw before decorating.

This makes them an excellent treat to prep early for busy holiday weeks.
