Halloween Brownies

I found a similar idea to these online and thought that it would be fun to make with the kids. You can make these brownies from a mix or from scratch. To make the gravestones, pipe RIP onto Milano cookies and then press them into the brownie. Here's the brownie recipe that I used. It makes a large pan so you may want to half the recipe and bake in an 8x12" pan.

FROSTED BROWNIES

1 1/2 cups butter
6 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
3 cups sugar
6 eggs
3 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/4 cups flour

Melt butter and chocolate together in a saucepan. Remove from heat and add sguar, eggs, vanilla, and flour and mix well. Pour into greased large (11x17") cookie pan and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar or frost with chocolate frosting.

Chocolate Frosting:
3 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
5 to 6 tablespoons milk
2/3 cup cocoa

Beat all ingredients together until creamy.
