Christmas Cake Brownies
Aren’t these Christmas Cake Brownies festive looking? I used Christmas colors, but you could change up the colors for any holiday/event. Oh, and I dyed the powdered sugar on top there. Cool, right?
I used my recipe from the Blue Cake Mix Brownies to make the cake brownies. But this time, I added frosting and topped it with colored powdered sugar. Cake Brownies are a mix between cake and brownie. You get the best of both worlds. With the store bought cake mix, it’s so easy to make and all you need for the cake brownies is 4 ingredients. You might have them all right now in your kitchen!
The grand kids loved these, in fact, they kept asking for more. Good thing I made a big batch of them, right?
So, I’m thinking these would great to make for a class party or a party with lots of kids. Or a get together with a lot of people.
Do you ever take goodies to your kids school parties? What kind of goody do you usually take?

Would these work in a brownie pan? I am making them for my daughters bday party. I want to use the pan so I have less cutting to do.
Yes…they should work in a brownie pan. Have a great time at the party! 🙂
