A big part of Christmas here at the Kitchen Shed is the giving of homemade edible gifts. Earlier in the year, I get ahead with making various chutneys, chilli sauce and chilli jam. Nearer to Christmas I’ll make shortbread stars, chocolate covered honeycomb and Snowmen Brownie Pops.

Why you’ll love these Snowmen Cake Pops

• Easy to make – thanks to some leftover brownies (or readymade) and melted chocolate. These cake pops are super simple to make.
• Cute and delicious – soft gooey brownies covered in white chocolate are too good to resist.
• Perfect for gifts or a table decoration – always the star of my hampers or my Christmas table, plus they make great gifts.
• Fun to decorate – I love making these cake pops with my nephews and nieces. Play around and decorate your snowmen with red sugar laces for a scarf or you could even give him ear muffs.

Ingredients

• Brownies – I’ve used some leftover brownies, alternatively, use your favourite readymade brownies.
• White chocolate – I like to use Callebaut white chocolate callets but any white chocolate labelled suitable for melting.
• Vegetable oil – I’ve used rapeseed oil. This makes the white chocolate easier to work with.
• Fondant icing – small amounts of red, black & orange fondant icing. Or maybe replace the fondant carrot noses, coal buttons and eyes with sugar balls if you don’t fancy making them with fondant, it really is up to you.
• Greaseproof paper or baking parchment – makes it easy to clean up afterwards.
• Cake pop sticks – you can easily find some in the bakery aisle at most supermarkets.

How to make

The Snowmen Brownie Pops really are easy to make. The brownies are so soft and rich there’s no need to add other ingredients as you might if you were making regular cake pops.

• Simply mash up the brownies and shape into balls. The top ball forms the head and is slightly smaller than the bottom one which forms the body. I found it easier to assemble the snowmen on the sticks rather than on a work surface and then skewering the little fellahs.
• Slide the head onto your stick, followed by the body before slightly flattening “the feet end” against a flat surface so your little man can stand up.
• Next, pop your creations into the freezer for a couple of hours.

• Once your snowmen are suitably chilled, dip them in melted white chocolate. I did add a small amount of vegetable oil to the white chocolate so it was easier to work and no worries about tempering.
• All you need to do next have some fun decorating your little creations and I’m sure the kids would love to help too.

Equipment

• 6 cake pop sticks
• baking parchment

Ingredients

• 1 Small tray of brownies approximately 1 large square per snowman
• 300 g white chocolate
• 1 tablespoon rapeseed oil
• Small amounts of red black & orange fondant icing

Instructions

• Add your brownies to a large bowl and mash together with your hands before shaping into 12 balls – 6 larger balls (2½ inch) and 6 smaller balls (2 inch).
• Stack two balls, smallest one first, then a larger one onto the end of each pop stick to make a snowman.
• Place brownie cake pops onto greaseproof paper, flattening the bottom larger ball slightly until pop can stand on it’s own. Put htem in the freezer for 30 minutes.
• Break the white choclate into small pieces and place in a large bowl over a pan of simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl isn't touching the water. Add a tablespoon of rapeseed oil and stir to coat the chocolate.
• Once the chocolate has melted, give it a good stir before dipping the frozen brownie pops one at a time. Shake off excess coating and place dipped brownie pop back onto greaseproof paper to set.
• Once the brownie pops are completely dry, have fun and decorate – use a small amount of melted white chocolate to stick your decorations to the snowmen.
• Pop your snowman into a cellophane bag and tie with ribbon.
