🕒 Prep Time: 15 minutes
🕒 Cook Time: 25 minutes
🕒 Total Time: 40 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 box brownie mix (or homemade brownies) + ingredients listed on package
- 1 cup green candy melts (or white chocolate + green food coloring)
- 12 large brownies, cut into rectangles
- 24 candy eyes
- 12 mini pretzel sticks or black licorice pieces (for “bolts”)
- ½ cup melted chocolate or black decorating gel (for hair and scars)
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Bake the Brownies
- Prepare your brownies according to package or recipe instructions.
- Once baked, let them cool completely, then cut into even rectangles.
- Dip in Green Coating
- Melt your green candy melts in the microwave (stir every 30 seconds until smooth).
- Dip the top of each brownie into the green coating, letting excess drip off. Place on parchment paper.
- Add the Face
- While the coating is still soft, press on two candy eyes.
- Use melted chocolate or black decorating gel to draw hair, a stitched scar, and a little smile.
- Attach the Bolts
- Break pretzel sticks in half. Push one piece into each side of the brownie as Frankenstein’s bolts.
- Let everything set for about 10 minutes before serving.
Pro Tips:
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Swap pretzels with black licorice bites for a fun twist.
- Make ahead: bake and cut brownies a day early, then decorate the next day for fresh, stress-free treats!
