Brownie Pops

Some friends were having a party and asked everyone to bring a snack to share.  Why can't I just make a pan of brownies?  Well, for one thing... did you know that making pops yields more servings per batch than traditional-sized brownies?  Plus, these are SO much more festive!  Who doesn't love food on a stick?!

I have a Wilton brownie pop silicone pan, so I baked them and stuck the sticks in them as they cooled.  In the meantime, I melted some chocolate chips and filled a bowl with neon non-pareils.  I also gift-wrapped some styrofoam blocks together for the display.  

Once everything was ready, I dipped each of the pops half-way into the melted chocolate and rolled them around in the sprinkles.  I made two dozen pops and allowed them to set.


At the party, they were a hit... Zero leftovers!
