    What You Need to Make these Brownies

    How to Make Them

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray the baking dish with nonstick spray.

    Pour melted butter into a bowl.

    Stir in the sugar and cocoa.

    Add the vanilla and eggs and stir well.

    Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together.

    Add the flour mixture to the other ingredients and stir well.

    Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

    Allow brownies to cool before cutting into 24 bars.

    How to Decorate Them

    Making the Icing

    You will need eggs, powdered sugar, cream of tartar, and green gel food coloring to ice the brownie bites.

    Combine all ingredients except food coloring in a mixing bowl, mixing on medium speed for 4 minutes. 

    If icing is not stiff enough add powdered sugar until it is thick. (up to about ¼ cup)

    Spoon the icing into a bowl.

    Add several drops of green gel food coloring in the large bowl of icing and stir well to mix the color.

    Decorating the Brownie

    You'll need candy pumpkins and Tombstones for decorating your Halloween Brownie Bites. 

    Note: the Peeps tombstones have been discontinued, so these are a little different. Here's another option for spooky cupcake toppers.

    Using the green icing cover a corner of the brownie to look like grass.

    Place a candy tombstone in the center of the back of the brownie.

    Add a candy pumpkin on the plot of icing grass.

    These Halloween Brownie Bites are the perfect dessert to take to your child's Halloween party! Just a little spooky and so cute, this dessert recipe is also easy to make!

      The tombstones don't look like the peep marshmallow ones.

        If you look closely, LuAnne, they are inserted right into the brownie. You could also use a little frosting if you wanted them to be on the back. Enjoy!

        I thought for sure I had answered this LuAnne. Most stores should have them, but Amazon is easier!
