12 Prepared Cupcakes with white frosting
1 box Fudge Chocolate Brownie Mix plus ingredients listed on the box. Baked in a Parchment Paper-lined baking pan
6 oz. Red Chocolate Melts
3 oz. Green Frosting

Prepare the brownies using the instructions on the box and the ingredients that are suggested.
Bake brownies on a parchment-lined baking sheet and let them completely cool.
Roll Some little balls out of the prepared brownie into apple topper sizes.
Place the brownie balls onto the wax paper you have ready.
Roll out little oblong shapes from the prepared brownie - these will be your stems. Place those on the wax paper
Prepare your Red Chocolate Melts
I usually microwave mine in a microwave-proof bowl for 1 minute, stir, then microwave for 30 more seconds.
Roll the round brownie shapes into the melted red chocolate.
Place these back on the wax paper.
While the red chocolate is still warm on the round brownie-shaped apples, place the brownie stems into the top of your round brownie shapes.
*If the red chocolate dries before you get to this. Add some melted red onto the bottom of the stem, and set it into the apple
Let the chocolate dry and harden.
Use green frosting to pipe the leaf onto the apple
Place apples in the center of the frosted cupcakes.
