4th of July Brownies
Report
These star shaped brownies are all dressed up for the 4th of July with melted candy and loads of sprinkles. The kids love to help decorate these simple, patriotic treats.

Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix 9x13 size
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup cool coffee
- 1/3 cup butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 ounces blue candy melts
- red, white, and blue sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment or foil.
- In a large bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, coffee, butter, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract. Beat well to combine.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean.
- Allow the brownies to cool before removing them from the pan.
- Using a star shaped cookie cutter, cut the sheet of brownies into stars. The number of stars you get will depend on the size of your cookie cutter. Use a smaller star for more brownies.
- Place a wire cooling rack inside a baking tray and place the star shaped brownies on top.
- Place the candy melts into a microwave safe bowl and heat in 15-20 second bursts, stirring each time, until melted and smooth.
- Drizzle the melted candy over the brownies and then top with the sprinkles immediately.
- Allow the candy melts to set before serving.
Notes
- The number of brownies you get will vary based on the size of cookie cutter you use. We like to use a small star to cut tiny brownies from the scraps as well. Otherwise, the scraps are just munched on while we decorate.
