Ingredients
  

For the Brownies

  • 1 box box brownies Use your favorite brand.
  • 1/2 cup oil Vegetable or canola oil works well.
  • 1/3 cup hot coffee Coffee enhances the chocolate flavor.
  • 1 piece egg Use a fresh egg for best results.
  • 1 cup chocolate chips Use high-quality chocolate for best flavor.

For the Ganache

  • 1/3 cup heavy cream Warm but not boiling for the ganache.
  • 1/3 cup white chocolate chips For the decorative laces.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 350F and line a 9x13-inch pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the brownie mix, oil, coffee, and egg. Whisk until combined and smooth.

Baking

  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting into football shapes with a cookie cutter.

Making the Ganache

  • In a medium bowl, combine chocolate chips and hot heavy cream. Allow to sit for a few minutes, then whisk until smooth and glossy.

Decorating

  • Dip the tops of the brownies in the ganache and let excess drip off.
  • Melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments until smooth.
  • Transfer the melted white chocolate to a piping bag and pipe football laces onto the cooled brownies.

Serving

  • Refrigerate the brownies to set the ganache before serving.
  • Serve them with coffee or a pitcher of milk.

Notes

For a richer flavor, melt butter instead of using oil. You can also add cinnamon or sprinkle sea salt on top for extra flavor.
