Step 1 – Mix
Preheat oven to 350°. Prepare brownie mixture as per package directions in a medium bowl
Tint 150g vanilla frosting with green food coloring
Tint 450g chocolate frosting with black food coloring, put most in piping bag fitted w/ large round decorating tip, chilled in fridge for 30 minutes.
Reserve 75g of black icing and insert into piping bag fitted w/ small round tip.
Step 2 – Bake
Spoon brownie mixture evenly into each Tenderflake Tart Shell, filling to just below rim
Place tart shells on rimmed baking sheet and bake 18 - 22 minutes or until almost set in centre.
Cool thoroughly
Step 3 – Decorate!
Once cooled, frost the top of each tart w/ lime green frosting. Pipe a large ball of chilled black chocolate frosting for the body and a smaller one for the head - as pictured.
Insert licorice legs into body, anchoring “feet” into tart. For eyes, press green chocolate covered sunflower seeds into frosting head, adding black dots of frosting for the pupils and a red chocolate teeny for the nose.
