LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark and nonstick pan). Grease bottom only of 8-inch or 9-inch square pan with cooking spray or shortening. (For easier cutting, line pan with foil, then grease foil on bottom only of pan.) Make and bake brownies as directed on box. Cool completely, about 1 1/2 hours. Cut into 4 rows by 3 rows to make 12 brownies.
  • 2 Divide frosting between 2 small bowls, placing a little more frosting in one bowl. Add green food color to the bowl with more frosting and purple food color to second bowl; mix both until blended. Frost 8 brownies with about 1 tablespoon green frosting; frost remaining brownies with purple frosting.
  • 3 Decorate each brownie with 2 candy corns for neck "bolts" and 2 candy-coated baking bits for eyes. Use decorating gel to add pupils to eyes and draw mouth and hair.

I made these as part of a high school musical with Frankenstein as the theme. Everybody of any age liked them. I agree with previous comments, Cut the edges to insert the candy.

Huge hit!! All of the kids in my family loved these, and the adults as well. There were so cute and easy to make. I would recommend trimming the brownie edges off though to make it easier to insert candy corn.
