Halloween Brownies
We start with a box mix to keep these brownies super simple and then top it all off with my mama's famous fudgy frosting and plenty of candy. Use up your leftover Halloween candy, I won't tell!

Notes
- You can skip the homemade frosting in you're in a hurry and use a can of chocolate frosting. Microwave for 30 seconds or until pourable and pour over the brownies. Let sit for 5 minutes before adding the candy.
- We like to use KitKats, mini Reese's, Milk Duds, Rolos, and candy corn. Eyeball candies are also fun, if you can find them.
