Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your baking pan as per the brownie mix directions.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, and oil, stirring until well blended. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
- Once cooled, use a sharp knife to slice the brownies into squares or circles.
- Dab a small amount of white icing on each brownie center and place a fresh strawberry pointed side up on top.
- Using a piping bag filled with white icing, outline the base of each strawberry to create the hat's brim.
- Let the finished brownies rest for about 15 minutes at room temperature to allow the icing to set.

Notes
Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting to maintain their fudgy texture. Use firm, ripe strawberries for the best hats. Piping practice enhances presentation, and cleaning is easier by lining the pan with parchment paper before baking.
