Sink your teeth into the spook-tacular goodness of Minty Vampire Brownies! Our favorite brownie recipe meets York Peppermint Patties and candy eyes for a wickedly delicious treat. Perfect for Halloween fun!

To get the ball rolling this year, I put on my festive Halloween baking hat and made these Halloween brownies.  Halloween treats are so fun to make, whether you are whipping up Halloween cupcakes or getting ready for a Halloween party, the ideas are endless. As a Mom of two, now-grown girls, I have made lots of fun Halloween food. I like to try to keep the food kid-friendly, not scary, and these brownies fit the bill!

How to Make Mintry Fudge Vampire Brownies

These Vampire Brownies start with your favorite brownie recipe or mix prepared and poured into a 9×13 metal pan or 8 or 9-inch square pan.

When you are baking, you’ll want to use the full recipe at the bottom of the page.

• Press 9-16* miniature chocolate peppermint patties into the batter.  *I used 9, but if you’d like to cut smaller brownies, you could squeeze in 16.  Use your spatula to cover the peppermint patties with brownie batter.  Bake according to the direction
• Let the pan of brownies cool about 30 minutes on a wire rack, then top brownies with another 9-16 miniature chocolate peppermint patties.  Let them cool another 15 minutes. Then decorate with candy eyes and icing.  The chocolate on the peppermint patties will then be a little warm and soft,  allowing the candy eyes to “glue” once they cool completely.
• Place decorated brownies in the fridge for about 20 minutes to set.   Remove brownies from pan, cut and enjoy!!

This is the icing I used for the mouth and fangs, although I did not buy their decorating tips.  I assumed my tips would fit – they did not, but I made d0 by holding them onto the tube.  It was a little messy and harder to work with, but since I only had 9 vampire faces to draw, it wasn’t too bad.  But I would recommend the small pen-like tubes, or if you get these, be sure to get the tips that they sell too.

Serving these vampire brownies is perfect for a Halloween party!  Our family and friends got a kick out of them.  Don’t have kids or no need for a vampire brownie? lol…………you can’t beat peppermint patties + brownies.  Make a batch, you won’t be sorry!

Now, if you’ll excuse me………. I’ll be the one with my head buried in a bag of Halloween candy for the next few weeks 😉

I hope you’ll have as much fun enjoying these brownies as we did!
