WHAT YOU'LL NEED
- 1 Brownie Mix: Forms your fudgy foundation with deep chocolate goodness.
- 2 eggs: Works to glue everything together while adding depth to your brownies.
- 1/3 cup oil: Makes sure your brownies stay tender and gooey.
- 1/3 cup milk: Gives moisture and helps you mix everything smoothly.

- 1 can of Milk chocolate frosting: Delivers a sweet, creamy crowning touch.
- 1 can of White or Vanilla frosting: Becomes your spooky orange middle layer.
- Orange food coloring gel: Turns your frosting into a vibrant Halloween hue.
HOW TO MAKE
- Step 1:
- Get your oven hot at 350°F and put parchment paper in a 9x9 inch baking dish.
- Step 2:
- Grab your stand mixer bowl and throw in the Brownie mix, eggs, oil, and milk. Mix it all up with the whisk part until everything looks smooth.
- Step 3:
- Dump your brownie mix into your lined pan and smooth it out flat. Put Oreos all over the top until you can't see any batter.
- Step 4:
- Stick the pan in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes. You'll know they're done when you poke them with a toothpick and it comes out clean. Let them cool completely right in the pan.
- Step 5:
- While you're waiting, make your orange frosting. Mix white or vanilla frosting with the orange stuff from about 10 Oreos. Add a teaspoon of orange food gel and stir until you get a bright pumpkin color.
- Step 6:
- When the brownies aren't warm anymore, spread all that orange frosting across the top. Stick them in the fridge for half an hour so the frosting can set up.
- Step 7:
- Take them out after chilling and slather on that milk chocolate frosting over your orange layer. Smash up leftover Oreos and sprinkle them on top for looks.
- Step 8:
- Cut everything into 3x2 inch chunks and dig in. Those gooey chocolate layers won't last long!
How to Serve and Store
- These yummy squares taste best a bit cool to keep those frosting layers looking sharp, but room temperature works too if you like them softer.
- Wanna impress? Cut them tiny and arrange them on a spooky Halloween plate for your party.
- Got extras? Keep them in a sealed container in your fridge and eat within 3 days. You can even freeze them for up to 2 months and just let them thaw in the fridge when you want some.
