1 can (16-ounce) vanilla frosting
Prepare brownie mix according to box
directions. Stir 2 cups chopped Milky WayĆ into batter
before spreading into a foil-lined jelly roll pan.
Bake in a preheated 325_F oven for
approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Cool completely.
In the meantime, finely chop
chocolate cookie crumbs with 12 caramel cookie bars in a
food processor, set aside. Cover brownies with chocolate
frosting and top with chocolate crumbs mixture.
Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Cut brownies into 16 pieces. Transfer
1 cup of vanilla frosting into re-sealable plastic bag

Vampire Bites
Makes 24 bites
Prep time: 20 minutes
Baking time: 7 to 10 minutes
Decoration time: 15 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
1 bag Milky WayĆ Brand Minis
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
Red food coloring
1/2 cup red decorator’s sugar
1 tube vanilla frosting
Combine flour, baking soda and
cinnamon in medium bowl; set aside.
Beat butter and sugar in large bowl
with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add egg;
beat well. Slowly add flour mixture into dough until
blended. Add enough food coloring to tint dough a bright
red. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at
least 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 375_F. Line cookie
sheet pans with parchment paper.
Using a rolling pin, roll out dough
on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Use
the printable templates or cookie cutter to cut out 24
lip shapes. Otherwise, you can form the dough into 24
balls and flatten each slightly to create free-form
shaped lips using your hands to pinch and shape the
dough. Transfer these to prepared cookie sheets. Re-roll
scraps if necessary.
Sprinkle cookies with red sugar. Bake
7 to 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the
oven, and immediately press an unwrapped mini into
center of each cookie. Cool completely. Use vanilla
frosting to pipe fangs over the candy.
Tip: If short on time, consider using
store-bought refrigerated sugar cookie dough. Begin by
kneading 2/3 cup of flour into dough, then roll and cut
according to the above directions. One roll of cookie
dough makes approximately 18 cookies.

1 teaspoon water
1 tablespoon sugar
