BROWNIE SNACKS RECIPES

Steps:

• Pour cereal squares into a large bowl.
• Combine chocolate chips and peanut butter in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth, about 1 1/2 minutes. Pour over cereal squares and stir until well coated.
• Place brownie mix in a container with a tight fitting lid, or in a large zip-top bag. Add 1/2 of the coated cereal in 2 batches and shake to coat. Spread on a sheet of waxed or parchment paper. Discard any leftover brownie mix.
• Let cereal sit until cool and dry, 30 to 45 minutes.
• Transfer cereal to a large bowl. Add pretzels and chocolate-coated candies and toss to combine.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°.
• Combine first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl; beat at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended. Combine flour, 1/3 cup cocoa, salt, and baking powder; stir well. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture, beating just until blended.
• Pour batter into a 9-inch round cake pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 25 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes; remove from pan, and let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Combine powdered sugar and milk; beat at low speed until smooth. Spread 1/2 cup powdered sugar glaze over top of cake. Add 1 teaspoon cocoa to remaining sugar mixture, stirring with a whisk until blended. Spoon into a small zip-top plastic bag. Snip off 1 corner of bag, making a small hole. Starting in center of cake, pipe frosting in 4 concentric circles. Starting at center circle, pull a wooden pick or tip of a knife through circles at regular intervals to edge of cake to form a "web" design.
