Spooky parties this year need a batch of these Creepy Crawly Brownie Pizzas. Kids go crazy for the fun bones and worms on top of individual brownie pizzas.
I have one last minute Halloween treat to share with you guys.
Actually I thought about holding off and saving it for next year since I am getting this up so close to the actual holiday. But you and I both know that I will totally forget about this come next year.
And since these were so very good, I figured you wouldn't mind another creepy treat before we dive into holiday goodies. Am I, right?
These brownie pizzas are a the love child of these Pudding Filled Dirt Cupcakes and these Brownie Fruit Pizzas. Delicious fudge brownies baked up in a whoopie pie pan and then topped with a cookie cream cheese layer are definitely the way to go this Halloween.
You can also top them with any kind of spooky gummies or candies. We used gummy worms and this skeleton bones candy mold.
Don't have a Whoopi pie pan? You can just bake your brownies in a regular baking pan and top with the filling. Then add your candies to each piece that you slice.
Either way works. I just like pulling out my different baking pans, so my hubby sees that I do actually need all these pans that I keep buying.
Now that I have our treats figured out I need to get cracking on the kids costumes. Anyone have any ideas for a homemade werewolf costume? Yeah, me either.
I guess I better go ask my best friend Google.

This is sooooo cute! And I actually have a whoopie pan AND the skeleton candy mold...even though Halloween is over (I'm soooo behind on commenting), but little guy would eat these any day of the year. He's obsessed with "spooky" stuff right now.

What a fun treat! I love how ghoulish they look! Dirt cakes are the best and I think this is an exceptional version! Good luck with the werewolf costume!

Dirt cakes have always been a favorite of mine! It was fun spookifying them:-) I think I have my son convinced to be a vampire since we have all that stuff already:-)
Hayley @ The Domestic Rebel
I love these Jocelyn! So spooky and oogy, but definitely delicious 🙂 and genius to throw some brownie batter into the whoopie pie pan!

These are so cute! And any thing with cream cheese as an ingredient is an automatic love in my eyes!

Crystal
You and I think so much alike! Well when it comes to food at least. 🙂
I bought that candy mold to make dirt cups for the kids on Halloween. Gosh now I feel like brownies sound so much better. Love the idea! 🙂
Jocelyn
That candy mold was way too cute...in a creepy kind of way...to pass up! We do seem to think alike in the food department:-)
Veronica
This looks like SUCH a fun recipe to bring the kiddos in the kitchen.... What a coincidence I just bought brownie mix too! (Ok not a coincidence since I buy it all the time, ooops!!) and for the werewolf costume just get fangs and a butt load of body hair lol 🙂
Jocelyn
I always grab extra boxes of brownies to have on hand. It sounds to me like creepy brownies need to visit your house:-)
