Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Line 9-inch square pan with foil, allowing some to hang over edges of pan. Grease bottom and sides of foil with shortening or cooking spray.
  • 2
    Make brownie batter as directed on box. Spread in pan.
  • 3
    Bake 28 to 31 minutes or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out almost clean. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 1 1/2 hours. Freeze in pan 15 minutes.
  • 4
    Using foil to lift, remove brownies from pan, and peel foil away. With football-shaped cookie cutter, cut brownies into football shapes. Set aside leftover pieces for snacking. Spread frosting on brownies. For easier cutting, refrigerate 15 minutes to set frosting. Pipe on decorating icing to look like football laces.

  • No football cookie cutter? Make a paper cutout, and cut the brownies around the shape.
  • If you’re cutting brownies with a knife, use a plastic knife for the slickest, cleanest cuts that won’t tear the edges.
