Gooey Brownie Cake Bars For Halloween
These Gooey Brownie Cake Bars are going to knock your socks off. There are 5 luscious layers of yumminess. Your kids are going to love you for making them because they are packed full everyone favorite flavors.
This year seems to be flying by. It is almost Halloween! I don't even have my Fall Wreath out on the front door yet. I had to hang a new hook on my front door first. Got that done today so the wreath will be going up tomorrow.
I whipped these Halloween Brownie Cake Bars up last night. I may have gone a little overboard........
This Brownie Cake Bar recipe starts out with a brownie mix and finishes up with some limited edition M&M's and mini peanut butter cups.
In between all that is a layer of cake, a layer of marshmallow fluff and a layer of chocolate frosting. Like I said I may have gone a little overboard but all I can say is Ooey Gooey goodness. Bring a fork and we can have a party!
See that lovely layer of orange cake that makes this a perfect Halloween dessert recipe. It is a package of Pillsbury Funfetti Orange All Star cake and cupcake mix. Along with the Fall M&M's this makes a perfect Halloween or Fall dessert recipe.
The Funfetti cake and cupcake mix comes in other colors so this Gooey Brownie Cake Bars recipe can be made for other holidays just by changing up the color of cake mix and M&M's used.
I love multipurpose dessert recipes don't you? It makes life so much easier when you find one recipe that is oh so good and you can use it for other occasions.
