Simple Strawberry Santa Hats Dessert Recipe Will Save the Day

Need a quick Christmas treat? Just two ingredients will help you turn a box of your favorite cake or brownie mix into a festive holiday sweet everyone will enjoy – including Santa. These strawberry Santa hats are simply cake or brownie squares topped with whipped cream and a strawberry hat. Genius!

You can make homemade whipped cream for this holiday recipe, or make it even quicker by using a tub of non-dairy whipped topping. Be sure to remove the stems from the strawberries before putting them on Santa's head. These are fun for holiday get-togethers, classroom parties or just for snacking at home.
