Materials

  • 1 9x13 pan Milk Chocolate Brownies - Use a Mix plus ingredients listed on box to add to mix or make your favorite homemade recipe
  • Round cookie cutters 2 inch
  • 1 16 oz. Chocolate frosting - I used store bought
  • Mini Oreos with white center - You can also use regular sized for larger eyes
  • 16 Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 24 Candy Corn

More:

  • pastry bag
  • star tip

Instructions

  • Bake brownies in a pan lined with parchment paper
  • After brownies have cooled completely, lift the parchment paper out of the pan
  • Use the cookie cutter to make circle shapes out of the brownies
  • Decorating
  • Fill a pastry bag topped with a star tip with chocolate frosting
  • Pipe frosting onto brownies
  • Twist Oreos apart so the white is still intact
  • Place 2 Oreos white side up onto the frosted brownie
  • Finish those off with Chocolate Chips in the center of the whites
  • Use traditional Candy Corn colors of white, orange and yellow for the beak
  • Use 2 more pieces of candy corn for the ears - just push those into the brownies so they point up

Notes

  • The amount will vary depending on the size of the cookie cutter you use. A large circle will make fewer owls than a smaller circle cookie cutter would
  • *I used a 3-inch cookie cutter on a 9-inch square brownie batch and was able to get 4 large owls. The owls were large and the kids struggled to eat the whole brownie. I would recommend a circle around 2 &1/2 inches or less.
