For the brownies

To decorate

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/ gas mark 4.
  2. Melt the chocolate and butter together over a ban marie, or in the microwave, stirring until combined.
  3. Whisk the eggs and sugar together in a mixer (or with a hand whisk). Turn to a low speed and slowly add the melted chocolate and butter.
  4. Fold in the flour and cocoa powder, remembering to scrape down the sides as you mix. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  5. Spread the mixture evenly into the lined tin. Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the edge comes out clean. The middle should still be wet, and wobbly. Leave to cool completely in the tin.
  6. To make the buttercream, mix the butter and cream cheese in a mixing bowl until smooth and creamy. Add in the icing sugar, food colouring if using, and vanilla extract, and mix until combined. Gradually add milk to loosen, if necessary. Transfer the buttercream to a piping bag fitted with a piping tip of your choice.
  7. Use a sharp knife and cut the brownies into 8-10 triangular slices.
  8. Pipe the buttercream onto each brownie, decorate with sprinkles and stick a candy cane into the bottom of each before serving.
