Ingredients You’ll Need

• 1 box fudge brownie mix
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/3 cup oil
• 1 egg
• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 teaspoon chocolate extract
• Candy eyeballs

You can swap chocolate extract for vanilla or almond for a flavor twist. For a more colorful look, try different styles of candy eyes or even gummy decorations.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1 – Prepare the Brownie Base

Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, stir together the brownie mix, water, oil, and egg until smooth. Line an 8×8-inch pan with foil or parchment for easy removal. Pour the batter in, spread evenly, and bake for about 40 minutes. Test with a toothpick in the center; it should come out with moist crumbs, not raw batter.

Step 2 – Cool the Brownies

Once baked, keep the brownies in the pan and let them cool completely. This step is key. If you rush, the fudge won’t spread evenly, and the layers may mix.

Step 3 – Make the Fudge Topping

While the brownies cool, prepare a double boiler by placing a heatproof bowl over a saucepan with 2 inches of simmering water. Add chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk to the bowl. Stir until smooth and glossy. Mix in the chocolate extract. The result should be thick, shiny fudge.

Step 4 – Assemble and Decorate

Pour the warm fudge mixture evenly over the cooled brownies. While it’s still soft but not runny, press candy eyeballs across the top. Let the pan sit at room temperature for 2–3 hours so the fudge sets completely. Slice into squares with a sharp knife, cleaning the blade between cuts for neat edges.

Tips for Success

Always cool brownies fully before adding fudge to keep layers defined. When pressing in the candy eyeballs, do it while the fudge is still warm but not too hot, or they might slide around. Letting the fudge set at room temperature helps keep it firm and makes slicing easier. For perfectly clean cuts, use a long, sharp knife dipped in warm water and wiped between slices. Planning ahead is helpful since the setting time ensures better results.
