Four ingredient no-bake gnome brownie bites are as cute as they are delicious! A perfect dessert for your Christmas cookie exchange, holiday party, or whenever you want a treat.
12Brownie Bitesfrom the bakery section in the grocery store
16ozWhite Frosting
12Strawberries
12Skittlesor M&Ms (red or pink)
Instructions
Place brownie bites on a cutting board or wire rack and set aside.
Wash strawberries and cut out the crowns in a v shape.
Take a brownie and pipe frosting onto the top. You want to be a little generous here.
Take a toothpick to spread some of the icing down one side to create a white beard.
Push a strawberry on top of the icing and add a red candy nose just under the strawberry.
Enjoy right away or refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
The cute little gnomes are best enjoyed immediately, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days. The red from the candies and strawberry juice will begin to drip into the frosting after a while.
I’m using store-bought brownie bites from the Walmart bakery section. There are usually 15-18 brownie bites per container.
If you have trouble frosting the brownie bites, use a piping bag with a tip and pipe the frosting on top of the brownies and down the side. If you press too hard with a butter knife, brownie pieces can end up in the frosting.
Purchase strawberries that are similar in size to the brownie bites. If the strawberries are too wide, they won’t fit on top of the brownies.
If you can’t find pink or red Skittles, you can use M&Ms or round-shaped cereal puffs for the nose.
