Easter Bunny Peeps in a Blanket Brownies

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9×9 square baking pan and line it with parchment paper that sticks up above the edges. You use the parchment paper to lift the bars out of the pan later.2. Mix together the oil, sugar and vanilla extract.3. Add eggs and mix until well combined.4. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt.5. Slowly add to the egg mixture until well combined.6. Pour the batter into the pan and spread evenly.7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with a few crumbs. Allow brownies to cool completely.8. Place candiquick in a microwave safe bowl and melt according to package directions. I usually melt it in about 30 second intervals, so I don’t burn it.9. Use a knife to spread a little chocolate on the back of each peep and stick them to the brownies, leaving them evenly spaced. You’ll use 12-15 peeps, depending on how you space them out. I had three rows of five. Allow the chocolate to dry.10. Use the parchment paper sticking above the edges of the pan to lift the brownies out of the pan.11. Cut brownies.12. Dip brownies, one at a time, into the chocolate candiquick. Place brownies onto parchment paper and add sprinkles. Allow to dry completely. Store in an airtight container.
