Easy 4th of July Brownies

This was such a popular post when first published on June 15th, 2015 that I had to republish it and include a fun printable 4th of July workbook for older kids to enjoy.

4th of July Brownies

You can either choose to make my Easy Brownies recipe,

or take a healthier route with my Chocolate Walnut Spinach Brownies recipe.

(If baking from scratch is not your thing, I promise these will be just as amazing if you use a box mix.

Buy 8 boxes of Krusteaz brownie mix and share with your neighbors.)

The success of these brownies lies in how creative you want to get with decorating the same!

I baked the brownies in a large cake pan and then used my star-shaped cookie cutter to cut out star shapes, just to give it a more 4th of July feel.

As an alternative, you can make mini 4th of July Brownie Bites

Use this 48 cup mini muffin pan t o avoid baking in two batches.

This is just so much more convenient especially when baking large quantities, or if you would like small bite-sized treats.

You can choose to frost the top of your brownie completely using the best cream cheese frosting recipe out there (or even good ol’ creamy peanut butter.)

You could also just use a dab of frosting to act as a glue to stick a sixlet, pearl or star to your brownie’s surface.

This is also a fun way to get the kids involved at a 4th of July celebration.

Set up a brownie decorating station and allow the kids to get creative!

Irrespective of the route you take, the end result will be festively patriotic.

Red, white and blue candy really is a no-fail decorating secret most people don’t make the most of!

Don’t miss printing the recipe for my Happy Birthday America strawberry cake.

Another favorite with the kids.
