Easy Jack o’lantern Halloween Brownies

Are you looking for some quick and easy, yet cute, Halloween treats to make this year? This brownie recipe uses Jack O Lantern Peeps to add a fall touch to this easy recipe. When things get busy in the fall, it’s nice to have a few go to recipes that you can make to keep the season’s fun going. Simple Halloween treats like these brownies, our skeleton rice krispy treats, and Halloweenies are easy enough for the kids to make themselves.

We’ve had time to make these quick superhero luminaries and our Franken-cup but haven’t gotten around to making our DIY Halloween Glow in the Dark Window Clings this year. Easy recipes leave more time for Halloween crafting and activities and bring some easy Halloween fun to your kitchen table.
