HALLOWEEN BROWNIE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Prepare and bake brownie mix according to package directions for 11x7-inch or 9x9-inch baking pan. Cool completely in pan.
• Use fork to break up brownies into crumbles. If needed, discard crusty edges. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
• Use tablespoon-size cookie scoop or hands to scoop and roll brownie crumbles into 1-inch balls. Transfer to lined cookie sheet. Freeze 30 minutes to harden.
• In medium microwave-safe bowl, microwave baking chocolate on High 30 seconds. Stir. Microwave on High another 30 seconds. Stir again. Microwave in 10 to 15-second intervals until chocolate is melted and smooth.
• Dip one truffle at a time into melted chocolate; transfer truffle between 2 forks to allow excess chocolate to drip. Transfer to cookie sheet. Sprinkle top with desired sprinkles. Repeat with remaining truffles.
• Store in airtight container, with parchment paper between layers, in refrigerator for up to 1 week.

BATTY BROWNIE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Line 8- or 9-inch square pan with foil, leaving 1 inch of foil overhanging at 2 opposite sides of pan; spray foil with cooking spray. Make and bake brownies as directed on box, using water, oil and egg. Cool completely in pan on cooling rack, about 1 hour.
• Freeze uncut brownies 30 minutes. Use foil to lift out of pan. Cut into 5 rows by 3 rows. Roll each brownie into a ball. Roll balls in chocolate sprinkles, pressing to adhere.
• In small microwavable bowl, microwave candy coating on Medium (50%) 30 seconds, then in 15-second increments until melted; stir until smooth. Dip tips of broken wafer cookies in melted candy; insert into truffles to look like wings. Use remaining melted candy to attach 2 chocolate candies to each truffle for eyes.

HALLOWEEN CHEESECAKE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare brownie batter as directed on package; spread into greased 13x9-inch baking pan.
• Beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in medium bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add egg and food colorings; mix just until blended. Pour over brownie batter; cut through batter with knife several times for marble effect.

TRUFFLE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Butter a 9-inch springform pan, and set aside.
• Make batter: Put butter and chocolate in a heatproof medium bowl set over a pan of simmering water; stir until melted. Let cool slightly.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; set aside.
• Put sugar and eggs in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and beat on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add chocolate mixture, milk, and vanilla, and beat until combined. Add flour mixture; beat, scraping down sides of bowl, until well incorporated.
• Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until a cake tester inserted into brownies (avoid center and edges) comes out with a few crumbs but is not wet, 27 to 30 minutes. Let cool completely in pan.
• Make topping when brownies are cool: Put chocolate in a medium bowl. Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until just simmering. Pour over chocolate; let stand 5 minutes. Gently stir until smooth. Allow ganache to cool, stirring every 10 minutes, until slightly thickened, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Pour ganache over cooled brownies in pan; let set, about 20 minutes. Refrigerate until cold, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Let brownies stand at room temperature at least 15 minutes before serving. Lift out brownies; cut into wedges, wiping knife with a hot, damp cloth between each cut. Scatter sprinkles on top.
