Ingredients

  • 1 Box of Brownie Mix (and the ingredients listed on the box to make it)

Step 1

First, prepare your brownie mix according to package directions.  (Be sure to use your 9×13 pan and bake accordingly.)

Tip:

  • Make is easier on yourself and line your pan with parchment paper.  This will make the brownies come out of the pan easier later.

Step 2

Next, allow your brownies to cool and then place entire pan in the freezer for about 2 hours.

Step 3

Once your brownies are frozen, remove the pan from the freezer and take the entire sheet of brownies whole. 

Note:

  • This is where the parchment paper comes in handy.  If you don’t have any, you can use a spatula to gently separate the brownies from the pan starting on the edges and working your way around the pan. (If you go the spatula route, it might take a while.)

Step 4

Place the whole sheet of brownies on a protected surface. (I used a Thomas kid’s place mat so feel free to get creative.)  Cut out small hearts with your cookie cutter and place on a plate or tray (you can use the same glass pan you baked them in to save you some dishes).

Step 5

Place your pan of hearts back into the freezer.  Start melting your candy melts.

Tips:

  • If you don’t have a double boiler, use a pot filled with ½ – 1” of water with a mixing bowl on top.  Bring the water to a boil and then reduce the heat.
  • If you candy is a little thick, add some shortening to it to give it a smoother consistency. 

Step 6

Remove brownies from the freezer and dip in the melts to coat.

Tips:

  • To get the most effective coverage, use a fork to dip them then use a rubber spatula to pour the candy over the top.
  • These will be easier to remove later if your cool them on a silicone mat or wax paper after dipping.
  • You may need to re-freeze the brownies if they begin falling apart or crumbling in the melted candy.  If you see small crumbs getting into the candy melts, put your brownies back in the freezer for a little while to firm them back up.
