Prep Time: 40 Minutes
Yields: 12 Brownies

Ingredients:

1 box (1 lb 2.4 oz) Betty Crocker® Original Supreme Premium brownie mix
Water, vegetable oil and egg called for on brownie mix box
1 cup Betty Crocker® Rich & Creamy vanilla frosting (from 16-oz container)
4 to 5 drops Betty Crocker® neon green gel food color (from 2.7-oz package of neon gel food color)
2 drops Betty Crocker® neon purple gel food color (from 2.7-oz package of neon gel food color)
24 candy corn
24 miniature candy-coated chocolate baking bits
1 tube (0.68-oz) Betty Crocker® black decorating gel

Instructions:

1. Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark and nonstick pan). Grease bottom only of 8-inch or 9-inch square pan with cooking spray or shortening. (For easier cutting, line pan with foil, then grease foil on bottom only of pan.) Make and bake brownies as directed on box. Cool completely, about 1 1/2 hours. Cut into 4 rows by 3 rows to make 12 brownies.

2. Divide frosting between 2 small bowls, placing a little more frosting in one bowl. Add green food color to the bowl with more frosting and purple food color to second bowl; mix both until blended. Frost 8 brownies with about 1 tablespoon green frosting; frost remaining brownies with purple frosting.

3. Decorate each brownie with 2 candy corns for neck "bolts" and 2 candy-coated baking bits for eyes. Use decorating gel to add pupils to eyes and draw mouth and hair.

Fun Tip:
Serve these brownies at a kid's Halloween party, and let the guests decorate their own faces on the brownies.
