DIRECTIONS
- Make brownies following package or recipe directions. Cool completely. Cut off brownie edges.
- Cut brownies into 1.5-inch squares. Knead each brownie until flattened and pliable; mold and form ball around one mini peanut butter cup, covering peanut butter cup completely.
- Place 1/4 cup milk chocolate chips in small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at MEDIUM (50%) 30 seconds; stir. If necessary, microwave at MEDIUM an additional 10 seconds at a time, stirring after each heating, until chips are melted and smooth when stirred.
- One at a time, dip about 1/2 inch of the tip of the lollipop stick into melted chocolate and insert stick about halfway into brownie ball. Insert lollipop stick into styrofoam block. Repeat procedure with remaining brownie balls. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate several hours or until balls are firm.
- Place white chips and remaining milk chocolate chips in deep microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at MEDIUM 1 minute; stir. If necessary, microwave at MEDIUM an additional 15 seconds at a time, stirring after each heating, until chips are melted and smooth when stirred.
- Dip each brownie pop into melted chocolate mixture; gently tap off excess coating and return to styrofoam block. (Peanut butter cup ears or noses can be added before coating sets up or can be added later with a bit of melted chocolate or icing.) Allow coating to set before decorating.
- Prepare ROYAL ICING.
Stir together 2-1/4 cups powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons warm water and 1 tablespoon pasteurized dried egg whites. Beat at medium speed until spreadable. Add additional water, 1 teaspoon at a time, if too thick. Divide icing into small bowls for each color desired and tint with food colorings.
- Decorate brownie pops as desired with prepared icing and garnishes. Use icing to “glue” small candies or garnishes to pops. Allow icing to harden. Store decorated pops in a cool, dry place.
