Betty's Easy Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C for fan assisted ovens) Gas Mark 4. Line the bottom and sides of a 11x7-inch rectangular tin with foil and well-grease. Make and bake brownie mix as directed on box using water, oil and eggs. Transfer to cooling rack to cool completely; about 1 hour. Freeze in pan for 30 minutes.
  2. Remove brownies from the tin using foil to lift and peel away. Use sharp knife to cut brownies into 5 rows by 3 rows, making 15 brownie squares (about 5cm x 5cm each).
  3. Ice the top of brownies thickly with vanilla icing. Using a fork, pull the icing through to the outside of brownie to create “fur”. Dollop a small mound of vanilla icing in centre of brownies, place 1 brown sugar-coated chocolate on top for nose, 2 mini brown chocolates for eyes, and 2 white chocolate drops for ears. Pipe a mouth using black writing icing tube.
  4. Store covered at room temperature.

Betty's Tips

  • To easily line the bottom of the tin, tip upside down and form foil around bottom and sides. Flip tin over, and place foil insert inside tin for a perfect fit!
  • To cut brownies easily, use a plastic knife. Betty Recommends
