Strawberries get dressed up for Easter in adorable carrot costumes, then top decadent brownies worthy of this year’s family celebration.
Prepare brownie mix according to package directions. Bake in an 11×7-inch baking pan, then cool to room temperature. Spread frosting evenly on the top of the brownies, then sprinkle crushed Oreos on top.
Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. Microwave candy melts according to package directions until melted. While gently grasping the green top of the strawberry, dip into candy melts until all of the strawberry is covered except for greens. Transfer to the parchment paper, then repeat with remaining strawberries. Place baking sheet into the refrigerator for a few minutes to set.
Gently “dig” the strawberries into the Oreos and frosting.
