I’m such a sucker for bringing fun foods in to celebrate a holiday. And this week is no exception. It’s all about baking easy treats that will bring a smile to my kid’s faces and make things a little more exciting leading up to Halloween.

Today I’m sharing a simple Brownie Witches Cauldron that takes just three ingredients and zero skill to pull it off. Seriously…boxed brownie mix, pre-packaged green icing and sprinkles. That’s it! These have been a HIT with my kids and have topped their favorite Halloween treat so far.

Looking for other easy festive treats? I’ve got you covered with 4 more recipes that are kid-friendly, kid-approved, and kid-doable. Get those little ones in the kitchen with you and make something a little spooky and a lot fun this week!

Course Dessert

Servings 12 cauldrons

Ingredients

1 box your favorite box brownie mix
1 tube green tube icing, homemade or store bought
1 package green sprinkles

Instructions

Grease muffin tin thoroughly to avoid any sticking. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare brownie mix according to package directions.
Pour brownie mix into muffin tin, filling about 2/3 full.
Bake according to package directions or until a knife placed in center of brownie comes out clean. Mine took 25 minutes to fully cook through.
Allow to cool 5 minutes in the pan and then remove and cool the rest of the way on a cooling rack. If any brownies stick to the side, slide a knife around the brownie and it should easily pop out then.
Once completely cooled, pipe green icing on the top of the brownie and down the sides to look like a green potion that has spilled over the edge.
Sprinkle green sprinkles on top of the icing to mimic bubbles and some of the creepy witches ingredients! Even add a pretzel stick, Tootsie Roll, or black licorice as the stirring spoon!
