Santa Hat Brownies

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 180C and line an 8×8 pan with baking paper.
2. In a bowl, combine the flour, salt and baking soda.
3. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, brown sugar and vegetable oil until well combined, then whisk in the vanilla and water.
4. Add your wet ingredients to your dry ingredients, and mix well to combine.
5. Melt 1 cup of chocolate in the microwave in short bursts or on the stove top, then stir into your brownie batter.
6. Lastly, stir in ½ a cup of chocolate chips or bits.
7. Pour the brownie batter into the lined baking pan and bake for 50 mins or until just firm to touch.
8. Remove the brownies from the oven and transfer them to a cooling rack to cool.
9. Once your brownies have cooled down, cut them into 9 squares. To make the Santa hats, top each brownie with a piped dollop of frosting, then a strawberry, and a small blob of frosting on top.
