Halloween Bat Brownies

Preheat oven according to the brownie mix package instructions. Prepare the brownie batter as directed.
Bake in a greased 9×13-inch pan until set, then let cool completely.
Cut brownies into squares or circles using a sharp knife or cookie cutter.
Carefully break each cookie half into two equal pieces to form bat wings.
Press two cookie wings into the sides of each brownie piece.
Use a dab of melted chocolate or frosting to attach two candy eyes on top.
Chill brownies for 10 minutes to help the decorations set, then serve.

Cobweb look: Drizzle melted white chocolate over the cookie wings for a spooky web effect.
Pumpkin bats: Use orange candy melts for the eyes instead of white.
Mini bats: Cut brownies into bite-sized pieces and use mini cookies for wings.
Extra flavor: Add a layer of chocolate frosting on top of the brownies before decorating for more richness.

Let brownies cool completely before cutting to prevent crumbling.
If cookies break unevenly, don’t worry—bat wings aren’t perfect in nature either!
To make assembly easier, work on parchment paper so melted chocolate cleanup is simple.
Store decorated brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Cute, fudgy, and just a little spooky, these Halloween Bat Brownies are the kind of treat that delights kids and adults alike.
