I am so ready for Christmas. Last year, we did a Christmas decorations haul a couple of days after Christmas.

So what better way than decorate the house and make these Melted Snowman Nutella Brownies?

Melted Snowman Nutella Brownies Ingredients
This Melted Snowman Brownies recipe is just made with a couple of simple ingredients, and yet still looks pretty impressive. All you need is:
- all purpose flour
- sea salt
- Nutella
- brown sugar
- vanilla extract
- eggs
- melted butter
- white frosting
- large marshmallows
- black gel writing icing
- orange sprinkles
- Reese's mini peanut butter cups
Tips
Storage: Store these Christmas brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days, or 1 week in the fridge.
Use boxed mix. Short on time? You can make the brownie batter using boxed brownie mix. The snowman faces are really the most important part about these brownies anyways.
Don't have frosting? Use vanilla ice cream instead of the frosting and marshmallow! This way, you can watch it truly melt.
Can't find orange sprinkles? I had them leftover from Halloween. But if you can't find them, use some orange frosting for the little carrot nose.
Instead of the black writing gel: use melted chocolate. Just place some dark chocolate in a double boiler to melt it. Then scoop into a piping bag and pipe some coal eyes and mouth.
