“I’ve Gone Batty” Halloween Brownies are the fun Halloween treat that will have you flapping your wings with joy! Fun for kids of all ages!
This post and recipe was created for #HalloweenTreatsWeek! I was sent samples by some of the sponsor companies but as always opinions are 100% mine.
Our daughter is OBSESSED with Vampirina at the moment.
It’s a cute Disney Jr show that features Vee, a young vampire who is adjusting to her move from Transylvania to Pennsylvania. Only a few friends know she is a vampire. She can’t get “Batty!” or she will turn into a bat and her secret will be known.
We are going the Hauntley family for Halloween. Autumn will be Vee, with her cute little costume that she wore to Disney recently. She got to dance with Vee at Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. Pure bliss!!! Anyway, I will be her mom, Oxana, and Price will be her day, Boris. Hunter is going to be Demi, the ghost. We actually wore our costumes to disney, but it was sooooo melt your face off hot then, that we had our modified costumes on. But for Halloween, we will get it all together and be the most awesome Hauntley family ever!
She also has told us she wants to have a Vampirina themed birthday party for her upcoming birthday, in November. So, I have been on a mission to find really cute ways at decorating for her party. Purple table clothes, lots of bats, black and purple streamers, and plenty of vampire teeth to have in goodie bags. I feel like I have that locked down, but I am now on a mission for creative foods and drinks to serve at her party.
Of course, Pinterest is a great resource for finding yummy food and drinks. I always get inspired when I am looking on there.
Such is the case with these fun brownies that I created to look like bats. And, they were a big hit, since she loved these “I’ve Gone Batty” Halloween Brownies. I have a feeling that your kids will too!
For me, I love how these Batty Halloween Brownies are just so adorable! Plus, how simple they are to do. The halved Oreo Cookies make the perfect wings and the candy eyeballs are the perfect finishing tough for the cute brownies.
These “I’ve Gone Batty” Halloween Brownies are great for Halloween bake sales or when you just want to make a fun special treat for the kids. When I love best about these brownies is that you don’t need anything special for them. You don’t even need a cookie cutter for them. While I love cute cookie cutters, I am all about ease. I made them with my favorite brownie recipe, but you can make them even simpler than that with boxed brownie mix.
Then it’s just a few more steps to take them from your average brownie to bat-tastic ones. They are so easy to make that Autumn got to help me make them.
Plus, it just takes a few special ingredients. The candy eyeballs from Wilton are so perfect for these brownies, and so many other fun Halloween treats.
We hope that both vampires and kids enjoy these fun batty brownies. They are quite spook-tactular!
