Nuts, icing, cream cheese, chocolate chips, and other items may be used. A blond brownie or blondie is a version created using brown sugar and vanilla
    instead of chocolate in the batter. The brownie was created in the United States at the end of the nineteenth century and became popular in the first half of the twentieth century.

    Ingredients for Christmas Tree Brownies

    Chocolate chips

    Semisweet chocolate is the traditional chocolate chip chocolate; in fact, you can make your brownies using melted chocolate chips or chunks if you choose. Semisweet chocolate comprises roughly 40 to 60 percent cocoa solids, giving it a pleasing sweetness and a good flavour.

    Unsalted butter 

    unsalted butter will give the dish the aeration needed for rising brownies well. If you use a cake brownie, butter is a better option because it helps rise the batter. For denser, fudge type brownies, oil is permissable.

    vanilla extract

    vanilla extract will bring out the chocolate flavour, and add a delicious vanilla taste to the brownies
