Melted Snowman Brownies
Melted Snowman Brownies are a festive dessert combining rich dark chocolate almond brownies with a creamy marshmallow topping shaped into snowmen. The brownies have a dense, fudgy texture from cocoa and almond meal, baked until just firm. The marshmallow cream is spread atop each brownie, and decorated with miniature licorice eyes and hats, and orange icing noses, creating a whimsical winter-themed treat.

Instructions
- Set the oven to 170C (340F). Cup cake papers or a smallish muffin tin ( lined or greased)

To make the Marshmallow snow man
- Put the marshmallows into a jug or bowl with the cream. Blitz for 30 seconds in a micro wave and then stir to combine. Cool slightly. Spoon about 1/2 teaspoon onto each brownie. Cool
- Meanwhile make tiny balls for the eyes with the liquorice and the tiny hats with this liquorice as well. Make the little carrot shaped orange noses with slices of orange lollies rolled into little carrots. Rest each piece of liquorice hat on a half a marshmallow. Let these dry out before storing in an airtight container till needed. They will last for about 4-5 days . You can keep in the fridge in a warm climate, then bring to room temperature
