Ingredients
Brownies
- 1 batch of brownies baked in a 9×13 inch pan (from box mix or homemade)
Topping
- 1 to 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips
- Valentine’s Day sprinkles, to taste
Instructions
- Bake the Brownies: Prepare and bake your brownies in a 9×13 inch pan following your preferred recipe or box mix instructions. Allow them to cool completely before proceeding to ensure clean cuts and stable toppings.
- Cut into Hearts: Using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut the cooled brownies into heart shapes. Try to cut close to the edges of the pan to minimize any leftover scraps.
- Melt the White Chocolate: Place the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Decorate with Chocolate: Using a spoon, drizzle the melted white chocolate over each brownie heart, starting at the center and gently spreading it towards the edges for even coverage.
- Add Sprinkles: Quickly sprinkle Valentine’s Day sprinkles over the melted chocolate before it sets, ensuring that they stick well to the chocolate.
- Set the Chocolate: Allow the white chocolate to fully set and harden before serving to enjoy perfectly decorated fudgy brownie hearts.
Notes
- Ensure brownies are completely cooled before cutting to prevent crumbling.
- Use a sharp cookie cutter and press down firmly for clean heart shapes.
- If white chocolate seizes or is too thick, add a small amount of vegetable oil or shortening to smooth it out.
- Store finished brownie hearts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
