Prep time: 15 min.
Baking time: 30-35 min.
Decoration time: 25 min.
Difficulty: Easy
What you’ll need:
1 bag SNICKERS® Brand FUN SIZE® Bars, unwrapped and chopped
1 bag M&M’S® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies for Halloween
1 22.5-oz. box brownie mix
1 16-oz. can dark chocolate fudge frosting
1 cup vanilla frosting
Re-sealable plastic bag
1 9 x 13-inch pan(s)
Aluminum foil
Waxed paper

What to do:

Prepare brownies according to the package instructions (for cake brownies).
Fold in the chopped SNICKERS® Brand FUN SIZE® Bars, before transferring the batter to a foil-lined 9 x 13-inch baking pan.
Bake according to the package directions. To check if ready, insert a toothpick 2 inches from the edge of the pan. If it comes out clean, the brownies are ready.
Remove from oven, transfer to a wire rack, and let cool completely.
Remove the brownie from the pan by loosening it from the sides, and then lift it out of the pan and place on a flat surface.
Spread the top of the brownie with the chocolate fudge frosting. Cut into 2-inch squares (4 lines x 6 lines).
Put vanilla frosting into a re-sealable plastic bag and snip a hole in the corner. Using the picture as a guide, make a skull shape on top of each brownie, by squeezing a large circle of frosting above a smaller circle of frosting, and then piping two crossed bones in front of each skull. Use M&M’S® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies for Halloween for the eyes and mouth. Transfer the brownies from the foil to a platter or waxed paper-lined cookie sheet.
Makes 24 brownies.
