Brownie Base
- 1 box brownie mix, plus ingredients called for on box (usually eggs, oil, and water)
Decoration
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
- Green food coloring, a few drops
- 1 can chocolate frosting
- 1 cup crushed Oreos
- Pumpkin candies, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare and Bake Brownies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper and grease it with cooking spray. Prepare the brownie batter according to the package instructions, then pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 28 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely before proceeding.
- Melt and Color White Chocolate: In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips, vegetable oil, and green food coloring. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Transfer the melted chocolate mixture to a small ziplock bag, then cut a small tip off one corner to use as a piping bag for decorating.
- Decorate Brownies: Spread the chocolate frosting evenly over the cooled brownies. Sprinkle the crushed Oreos over the frosted surface. Using the green melted white chocolate in the piping bag, pipe vine designs across the brownies. Finally, scatter pumpkin candies on top to complete the festive pumpkin patch look.
Notes
- Ensure brownies are fully cooled before frosting to prevent melting.
- Adjust the amount of green food coloring to achieve your preferred vine color intensity.
- For extra texture, add chopped nuts to the brownie batter if desired.
- Store decorated brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
