Key Ingredients

• 1 package brownie mix plus ingredients listed on box
• 13 chocolate sandwich cookies
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 tube green cookie icing
• 5 ounces candy pumpkins

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat your oven and line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
2. Prepare the brownie batter according to the package directions, pour into the prepared pan, and bake until set.
3. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang.
4. Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until they reach a fine, dirt-like crumb consistency.
5. Make a chocolate ganache by heating the heavy cream until just simmering, pouring it over the chocolate chips, and whisking until smooth.
6. Spread the chocolate ganache evenly over the cooled brownies and immediately top with the crushed cookie crumbs.
7. Use the green cookie icing to pipe thin, curly vines and small leaf shapes across the cookie crumb “dirt” layer.
8. Place the candy pumpkins onto the vines, ensuring they are spaced evenly so each cut square will have at least one pumpkin.
9. Let the frosting and ganache set for at least 15 minutes before slicing the patch into individual brownie squares.
