Dipped Brownie Pops Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Line 9-inch square pan with foil, allowing some to hang over edges of pan. Grease bottom and sides of foil with shortening or cooking spray. Make and bake brownies as directed on box for cakelike brownies. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Place brownies in freezer for 30 minutes. Using foil to lift, remove brownies from pan, and peel foil away. Cut brownies into 16 bars, 4 rows by 4 rows. Gently insert craft stick into end of each bar, peeling foil from bars. Place on cookie sheet; freeze 30 minutes.
• In small microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips and shortening uncovered on High about 1 minute; stir until smooth. If necessary, microwave additional 5 seconds at a time. Dip top 1/3 to 1/2 of each brownie into chocolate; sprinkle with candy sprinkles. Lay flat on waxed paper or foil. Let stand about 1 hour or until chocolate is set.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
• Place 1/2 cup butter and white sugar in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in microwave on high until butter is melted, about 1 minute. Stir 2 ounces baking chocolate into butter-sugar mixture until chocolate melts. Stir in eggs; mix well. Add flour, 1 tablespoon orange liqueur, vanilla extract, and salt; stir to combine. Pour batter into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top is dry and the edges have started to pull away from the sides of the pan, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely.
• Place remaining 1/4 cup butter in a large microwave-safe bowl. Heat in microwave on high until melted, about 30 seconds. Stir 1 ounce baking chocolate into melted butter until chocolate melts. Stir in orange liqueur and 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar. Crumble the cooled brownies into the mixture; stir to combine.
• Form brownie mixture into 1-inch balls; arrange on a baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. Insert a lollipop stick into each brownie ball.
• Melt chocolate coating and chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Keep warm.
• Dip each brownie pop into the chocolate coating, allowing excess chocolate to drip back into the saucepan. Transfer the coated brownie pops onto a baking sheet or set upright into a piece of craft foam. Allow coating to set, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over simmering water. Dip 1 candy/lollipop stick into the melted chocolate (this will help the brownie adhere better to the stick). With clean hands, or wearing rubber gloves, scoop out 1 heaping tablespoon of brownie. Mold the brownie onto the stick, making sure the brownie is somewhat secure. Carefully dip/paint each stick individually with melted chocolate with the help of a spoon, allowing some of the chocolate to get onto the stick. This will act as glue and keep the pop from falling apart when you bite into it. Dip into different toppings, as desired. Place onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Once all the pops are finished, place into the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set.
• Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F.
• For your brownie batter, melt your butter in a medium (or large) heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water.
• While the butter is melting, whisk the cocoa powder, sea salt and sugar in a separate bowl. (The sugar and salt will work as abrasive agents to get any lumps out of the cocoa.) Whisk the cocoa/sugar/salt combo into the melted butter until the sugar has dissolved fully. The mixture should look like fudge and pull away from the bowl into a ball. Take off the stove and set the pan on a dishtowel on your counter. Allow the fudgy mixture to cool down until it's warm, but not hot anymore.
• While that is cooling, line the bottom and sides of your 9 by 13-inch baking pan with parchment paper or foil. You want to leave about 4 inches of overhang on the 2 opposite sides. These serve as your handles to remove the brownies from the pan in 1 piece, so make sure that there is enough of the overhang for you to have a solid grip. Grease the parchment or foil well.
• Stir in the vanilla into the cooled fudge mixture to loosen it up. Add the eggs into the mixture 1 at a time, adding the second egg after the first egg is fully incorporated. The batter should look shiny and well blended. Add in your flour and stir it until it's fully incorporated. Once it looks fully blended, beat the batter vigorously for at least 45 strokes. This'll not only get out any pent up stress, but it will make the brownies chewy. Fold in your chocolate chips. Spread the very thick and fudgy brownie batter evenly in the lined pan with an offset spatula or your greased hands.
• Pop the brownies in the oven and bake until they get a nice crust and your house smells like brownies, 20 to 25 minutes. Let them cool completely on a rack or a dishtowel on your counter.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.
• Sift together the sugar, cocoa, flour and salt. Drizzle in the melted butter while still hot, add the vanilla and stir until combined. Use a small cookie scoop to scoop out 20 portions and use your hands to roll them into neat balls. Press a lollipop stick into each ball. Place on the prepared baking sheet and let cool at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Melt the chocolate wafers in a microwave or double boiler and let cool slightly. Dip each pop into the chocolate. Lightly tap the stick on the side of the bowl so the chocolate sheets around the sides and drips off. Sprinkle over the chocolate jimmies. Place the sticks in the florist foam and allow the pops to set at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom only of 9-inch square pan with shortening or cooking spray. Make and bake brownies as directed on box for 9-inch pan, using water, oil and eggs. Cool completely.
• Line cookie sheet with waxed paper. Using cookie scoop, scoop brownies into 36 (1 1/2-inch) balls. Roll between hands to smooth edges; place on cookie sheet. Refrigerate to keep chilled.
• Line a second cookie sheet with waxed paper. In medium microwavable bowl, microwave candy coating uncovered on Medium (50%) 1 minute, then in 15-second intervals until melted; stir until smooth. Remove several brownie balls at a time from refrigerator. Dip tip of lollipop stick about 1/2 inch into melted coating and insert stick straight into brownie ball no more than halfway. Dip brownie pop into melted coating to cover, letting excess drip off; place on cookie sheet. Immediately adhere green gummy candies and press brown candies in center for pupils. Let stand until set. Use food decorating pen to draw veins on eyeball pops.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring the sugar, butter and water to a boil over medium heat. Remove from the heat; stir in 1 cup chocolate chips and vanilla until smooth. Cool for 5 minutes. Beat in eggs.
