Ingredients

  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Fudge Brownie Mix
  • Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on brownie mix box
  • 1 package (8 oz) Snickers® unwrapped bites candy (about 48 pieces)
  • 2 1/4 cups semisweet chocolate chips (from 2-12 oz bags)
  • 2 tablespoons shortening

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Line 13x9-inch pan with foil, allowing foil to extend 2 inches over edges of pan. Grease bottom and sides of foil with shortening or cooking spray.
  • 2
    Make and bake brownies as directed on box. Cool on cooling rack until completely cooled, about 1 hour.
  • 3
    Using foil to lift, remove brownies from pan; peel away foil. Trim 1/8-inch off edges of brownie. Cut brownie into 7 rows by 5 rows, making 35 squares. Set aside leftover pieces for snacking.
  • 4
    Line cookie sheet or tray with sides with cooking parchment paper. Place 1 brownie square in palm of your hand, and press with fingers of other hand to flatten. Place 1 Snickers® bite in center of flatted brownie piece. Wrap brownie around Snickers® bite gently, pressing into a ball. Place on cookie sheet. Continue with remaining brownie squares and 34 of the Snickers® bites. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
  • 5
    Finely chop remaining Snickers® bites. In medium bowl, microwave chocolate chips and shortening uncovered on High 60 to 90 seconds or until mixture can be stirred smooth. Using 2 forks, dip and roll chilled balls, one at a time, in melted chocolate mixture. Return to cookie sheet; immediately top with finely chopped Snickers® bites. If chocolate mixture has cooled too much, reheat as needed. Refrigerate brownie bites about 20 minutes or until coating is set. Store covered in refrigerator.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    For even easier dipping, take two plastic forks, cut out center two tines, and use to dip into melted chocolate mixture.
  • tip 2
    Customize your brownie bites! Try one or several of your favorite mini size candies for the candy center of these brownie bombs.
  • tip 3
    Pay special attention when melting chocolate in the microwave--scorching or burning can happen very quickly.
