Recipes to Make with Kids: Flower Brownie Bites

Get ready for summer outdoor celebrations, and let your kids contribute to the festivities! This recipe is a fun activity plus delicious recipe all rolled into one!

To get started, first decide how deep into the baking world you want to go.

Level 1, buy a tub of brownie bites at your local grocery store.

Level 2, buy a box of brownie mix at your local grocery store.

Level 3, bake brownies from scratch; I recommend this recipe.

For my son's baseball end-of-season pool party, I went with Level 1 to keep things simple. If you opt for Level is 2 or 3, just make sure they are baked in a well-greased mini muffin pan in order for them to be little bites and not big squares.

Once you've got your brownie bites, it's time for kids to decorate them!

You'll need a bottle of white cookie icing, some pastel M&Ms, and pastel candy corn. I bought my pastel candy corn from Amazon.

Steps:

1. Have kids place a drop of icing in the center of the brownie bite, and then place one upside-down yellow M&M on top.

2. Have kids arrange candy corn in whatever color or pattern they like around the M&M. For these brownie bites, 8 candy corn fit perfectly.

Voilá! A hands-on activity and colorful, fun treat! If you try this at home with your kids, we'd love to see pictures! Post in the comments below or tag us on Instagram: @ittybittybakers
