Toppings like sprinkles or crushed cookies(optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350° F.
Prepare brownies according to package directions (for the chewy fudge brownies).
Bake according to package directions, around 25-30 minutes, or until set. Allow to cool.
Scoop and crumble cooled brownies into a large mixing bowl. Add icing, all little at a time, and stir. Continue adding icing until brownie crumbles are sticking together and can be formed into a ball.
Using your hands, roll and form brownie-icing mixture into a ball. Set aside on parchment paper. Repeat until all the brownie mixture has been formed into balls.
TO MAKE CHOCOLATE DIPPED BROWNIE BALLS
Over a double burner, melt the chocolate melts on low.
If you are going to making brownie cake pops, insert a lollipop stick into each brownie ball. If you are just making bites, do not insert a lollipop stick.
One at a time, dip each brownie ball into the melted chocolate, twirling or turning until the brownie ball is covered with chocolate. Lift and lightly shake over pot to remove excess chocolate.
*If you are using a topping like sprinkles or crushed cookies, immediately roll them in the toppings when they come out of the chocolate dip.
Place on parchment paper and allow chocolate covering to harden. ENJOY!
Notes
*If you are dipping the brownie bites in chocolate melts, you can also freeze the brownie bites before dipping them for up to 2 hours to make them harder and stay together better for dipping into the melted chocolate.
