Instructions

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, then bake according to the recipe directions. Let the brownies cool.
   
2. 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.
   
3. Prepare the grill food as instructed below and press it in place atop each brownie.

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

   And if my hubby plays his cards right, I am getting him a NEW grill for Father's day!
   Ours came with our house and was built into the ground back in the 60's.
   One day hubby went to open the grill and it completely fell over!!
   The bottom of it had rusted enough over the years that it literally cracked and fell!!!
   We had to call NIPSCO out to cut the gas line for us too.
   So we have been dying to GRILL the past few weeks, LOL!!
   Hope I can find a really good deal on one next week, any suggestions?
   Looking to spend no more than like $100 or so...
   
   
   Thanks,
   Noelle ♥
