Preparation

Step 1

To make a batch of 12, place liners in a muffin pan, oil them, and fill them two thirds full of your favorite brownie batter (or cake batter), then bake according to the recipe directions. Let them cool.

In a small bowl, mix one or two drops of black food coloring with 1/4 cup white frosting. Transfer the frosting to a ziplock bag and snip a small section from the corner. Pipe grate lines onto each brownie and let them set for 20 minutes. Add embers with a sprinkle of orange sugar. (I used Black frosting and skipped the orange sugar, it would be better the way they had it but went with what I had on hand)

Prepare the grill food as instructed below and press it in place atop each brownie(Cupcake).

Kebabs = red, yellow, and green candy fruit slices, cut into small pieces + toothpick skewers

Pork chop = two thirds of a caramel cream, molded with fingers + black food coloring, applied with a toothpick

Hot dogs = Hot Tamales candies + black food coloring, applied with a toothpick
