These decorated brownies are tasty, delicious, and are easy to make with a few simple ingredients you might already have in your pantry.
To make these super cute Mickey brownies you will need unsalted sweet cream butter, eggs, sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, brown sugar, brewed and cooled coffee, flour, espresso grounds, cornstarch, baking powder, and a Mickey Mouse cookie cutter.

Instructions
To make your Mickey brownies you will need to preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Spray your baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and then line it with parchment paper.
Beat together the sugar, eggs, butter, brown sugar, coffee, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl until they are combined and fluffy.
In a medium bowl, combine the espresso grounds, cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and cornstarch, and whisk them together. Slowly beat the dry ingredients into the wet until a batter forms.
Spread the batter onto the cookie sheet, and bake for 22-26 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow the brownies to cool completely and cut out 12 Mickey Mouse shaped brownies.
Making the frosting is easy with a stand mixer or hand mixer to beat the butter and vanilla extract together. Slowly beat in the melted white chocolate, and then add the powdered sugar until combined.
Scoop the frosting into the disposable piping bag and pipe an outline around the edge of the brownies. Fill in the center of the brownie and use a spatula to smooth out the icing. Sprinkle your valentine’s day sprinkles on top.
These brownies with sprinkles in a fun Mickey shape will make a perfect Valentine’s day treat or snack. Serve them at a Valentine’s day party, as a treat for your family, or as a sweet Valentine’s day brownie for your special sweetheart this year.
