    I don't like spooky things, but I'm also about spooky-cute. Especially when it comes to treats. I saw these little witch legs on Amazon and knew I needed to make something with them. They are hilarious! I trimmed them a bit shorter and added them to the top of a batch of brownies. Talk about easy!

    I have a divided brownie pan which makes a dozen perfectly square brownies with edges. You can bake these in a muffin pan if you'd like, but I love the square shape! There are so many uses for the divided brownie pan, and it's affordable, so I highly recommend adding a divided brownie pan to your baking cupboard!

    The brownies are frosted in homemade chocolate frosting and are so smooth and fudgy. One batch makes a dozen witch leg brownies. If you'd prefer to make homemade brownies vs. using a boxed mix you can use this recipe. It's easy and delicious. I love boxed mixes and use them just as often, so just use whatever you prefer!
