Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Bites
- 36 brownie bites
Toppings
- 1 can vanilla frosting
- Green food coloring
- 36 Mellowcreme pumpkins (candy corn pumpkins)
Instructions
- Prepare brownie bites: Place 36 brownie bites in a single layer on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or wax paper to prevent sticking and ease handling.
- Color the frosting: Add green food coloring to the vanilla frosting and mix until you achieve a vibrant grass green shade suitable for the pumpkin patch look.
- Pipe grass frosting: Fill a piping bag fitted with a grass tip with the green frosting. Pipe grass onto the top of each brownie bite to create a textured, grassy surface. Alternatively, you may simply spread the frosting evenly on top if piping tools are unavailable.
- Add candy pumpkins: Place one Mellowcreme pumpkin candy atop the frosting of each brownie bite, completing the pumpkin patch aesthetic.
- Storage and serving: Store the finished brownie bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Serve them at room temperature for the best flavor and texture. Avoid freezing the candy pumpkins to preserve their quality.
Notes
- The yield depends on the number of brownie bites you start with; commercially available brownie bite packages vary in quantity.
- You can substitute store-bought brownie bites with homemade from-scratch brownie bites for a personalized touch.
- Use a piping bag with a grass tip for a realistic grassy effect, but simple frosting spreading works well too.
- Keep the assembled brownie bites refrigerated until serving and avoid freezing the candy pumpkins to maintain their texture.
