Zebra Droppings

Double chocolate brownie Zebra Droppings are as much fun to eat as they are to make :)

Zebra Droppings take brownies to the next level of epicurean nirvana.

Makes about 2 dozen :)

Ingredients:

Betty Crocker Fudge Brownie Mix

2/3 cup vegetable oil

1/4 cup water

2 eggs

1 package of dipping chocolate or candy coating (OR I like to use a mix of dipping chocolate, wafers and chips, about 1/2 pack of dipping chocolate, 1/3 pack of wafers, 1/3 pack of chocolate chips)

1/4 package of white chocolate chips or wafers

Tools:

Wax paper covered cookie sheet

Toothpick or fork

9 x 13 baking pan sprayed with cookie spray

baggie

scissors

spoon

bowl or measuring cup

Prepare brownie mix according to package directions and let cool.

With spoon scoop out a heaping tablespoon of cooked brownie and lightly roll into a ball between your palms and place on waxed paper covered cookie sheet.

Note: For best results...If your brownies cook up with a crispy edge...score a brownie edge snack for yourself, but avoid using the crispy edges in your zebra droppings.

Melt chocolate in microwave according to package directions. I use a bowl or measuring cup and stir after every 30 seconds until melted (about 2 minutes total).

Notes: Do not use a wet spoon to stir chocolate or drip water into your chocolate, it will make the chocolate seize up. If needed, you can make your chocolate thinner by adding a dollop or about 1 teaspoon of solid shortening.

Use a toothpick or fork to dip brownie balls into melted chocolate. Place back on your wax paper covered cookie sheet.

With a spoon add a little chocolate to top of brownie bit and make a circle motion to make the decorative swirl on top. Chill in refrigerator until chocolate is hard, about 10 minutes.

Melt white chocolate in microwave stirring after every 30 seconds.

Place white chocolate into a sandwich baggie and clip a very small corner off of the baggie then drizzle white chocolate over your brownie truffles.

Who knew zebra droppings could taste so good?
