Ingredients
- 1 package brownie mix
- ingredients to make the brownies
- 12 Candy Eyeballs
- black decorating icing or gel
Instructions
- Prepare the brownies in an 8" x 8" pan according to the directions on the package, then allow them to cool completely before cutting them into 12 equal rectangles.
- Press one candy eye into the right long side of each brownie about halfway down. Leave enough space to draw a circle around the eye.
- Draw a circle around each candy eye with black decorating icing or gel.
- Use black icing to draw short horizontal lines like a book seam on the long side opposite the candy eye.
- Add half circles to each corner above and below the eye. Draw additional vertical lines or swirls to add more character to your spell book brownie.

Notes
- Store the brownies at room temperature in an airtight container for up to five days. If they’re not eaten by then (guessing they will be), toss any remaining brownies. Or give them away so someone can enjoy these delicious Halloween treats!
- Test the icing out on a piece of wax or parchment paper before you start icing the brownies. Sometimes store-bought icings can get a bit watery and that needs to be removed before icing. Same thing with melted chocolate, make sure to squeeze out any excess chocolate clumps to make sure you can get one smooth frosting line.
- Store in a cool place (but not the fridge) if you use melted chocolate into of black icing. If you store them in a warm place, the melted chocolate has a tendency to melt or smear easily.
