Shark Brownie Bites

These shark brownie bites are the perfect size for a sweet treat at your annual luau or shark week party. Using a shark fin ice mold, I created chocolate fins atop a round brownie with buttercream icing waves. You can easily achieve the same fun effect by following my easy step-by-step instructions.

Instructions
 

  • Use the small circle cutter to punch out bite size circles and set aside on a sheet of waxed paper.
  • Melt white chocolate, using manufacturer’s directions (I heated for 60 seconds, stirred and heated in 15 seconds increments if needed more)
  • If you have gray food coloring, add a few drops into melted chocolate and stir. I did not, so I made my own color using two parts blue and one part red.
  • Once you achieve the color desired, pour chocolate into the silicone molds, give it a little jiggle to remove air bubbles, scrap excess off of mold and set on tray in fridge to set chocolate. (usually takes about 15 minutes)
  • Scoop out a 1/4 cup portion of uncolored icing and set aside for later use.
  • Color the remaining icing light blue or teal (for the ocean color) and add some to a frosting bag with a #18 Wilton star tip.
  • Spread a small amount of frosting on each brownie, then unmold the chocolate shark fins and place one in the center of each brownie.
  • Using Wilton star tip #18, start frosting around shark fin, in an upward motion, adding the wave effect.
  • Using reserved white frosting, use a toothpick to spread a little on the back of each fin, if desired.
