Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate frosting
- 0.25 cup white decorating icing
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips in 20-second increments, stirring each time, until smooth.
Whisk in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined and glossy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it into an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan, then lift them out using the parchment paper.
Use a football-shaped cookie cutter to cut out football shapes from the cooled brownie slab.
Frost each brownie football with chocolate frosting for a smooth surface.
Pipe white decorating icing onto each brownie to create laces and markings like a football.
Serve and enjoy your Brownie Footballs, perfect for game day or a fun party treat!
