Number Of Ingredients 19

nonstick cooking spray (such as BakeEasy®)
Mini Brownies:
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
Frosting:
3 tablespoons butter, softened
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 tablespoons milk
1 cup powdered sugar
Decoration:
12 red candy-coated chocolate pieces (such as M&M's®)
60 candy corn, or as needed
24 candy eyeballs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 12-cup mini muffin tin with cooking spray. Cream 1/4 cup butter and sugar together in a bowl with an electric mixer. Add egg and vanilla extract; mix well. Stir flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. Add flour mixture to butter mixture and mix until batter is smooth. Divide batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 14 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, combine butter, cocoa powder, and milk in a bowl and mix with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and mix until frosting is smooth and fluffy. Spoon frosting in a piping bag fitted with a Wilton #10 tip. Pipe a circle of frosting near the bottom half of each mini brownie to create the turkey's head. Add two candy eyes. Add 1 red chocolate piece to form the beak. Pipe 5 lines of frosting in the shape of a semi-circle formation coming up from the head. Place a piece of candy corn on each of the 5 lines to form the turkey's feathers.
