Default Find and Replace blocks of text within brackets

I have many documents that I need to redact/remove text that lies between [ ]
brackets and replace it the text with XX. Is there a way to do this?

EX:
blah blah blah blah blah [blah blah blah] blah blah blah.

would be replaced with -

blah blah blah blah blah [XX] blah blah blah.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Mike
