Ingredients
Scale
Brownies
- 16 brownie pieces (square or round, store-bought or homemade)
Cream Cheese Icing
- 8 oz cream cheese (at room temperature, 1 bar)
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (at room temperature, 1/2 cup or 1 stick)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup confectioners sugar
Decoration
- 1 pack Candy Eye Balls
Instructions
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Icing: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter. Beat them together until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and gradually mix in the confectioners sugar until the icing reaches a thick but spreadable consistency.
- Assemble the Brownies: Arrange the brownie pieces on a serving tray or plate. Using a piping bag or a small spatula, spread or pipe the cream cheese icing in overlapping lines across each brownie to resemble mummy bandages.
- Add Eyes: Place two candy eyeballs on each iced brownie piece to complete the mummy look.
- Serve and Enjoy: Chill the brownies briefly if desired to set the icing. Serve these festive mummy brownies at your Halloween party and enjoy their delicious, creamy texture alongside the rich brownies.
Notes
- Use store-bought brownie pieces or homemade brownies for convenience and flavor.
- The cream cheese icing can be prepared in advance and refrigerated for easier decorating.
- Store leftover brownies in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
- For a different twist, add a pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder to the cream cheese icing.
