Description
Fudgy Mummy Brownies topped with creamy white chocolate “bandages” and candy eyes. Quick to bake, fun to decorate, and perfect for Halloween parties, bake sales, or a spooky family dessert night.
Ingredients
½ cup butter
¼ cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
¾ cup all-purpose flour (94g)
½ cup granulated sugar (100g)
½ cup brown sugar (100g)
⅓ cup Dutch process cocoa powder (33g)
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup white chocolate chips or candy wafers (for drizzle)
32 candy eyeballs
Instructions
1. Melt butter and semisweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cocoa powder, and salt.
3. Stir vanilla and eggs into the melted chocolate mixture until combined.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
5. Line or grease a 9×9-inch pan, pour in the batter, and spread evenly.
6. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30–35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs but no wet batter.
7. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then lift out and cool on a rack for 30 minutes. Slice into 16 squares.
8. Place two candy eyeballs on each brownie.
9. Melt white chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Transfer to a sandwich bag, snip a tiny corner, and drizzle in a zigzag mummy pattern, touching the eyes so they stick.
10. Let set for 10–15 minutes before serving or storing.
Notes
Swap semisweet chips with milk chocolate chips if you like a sweeter base.
You can use regular baking cocoa instead of Dutch process.
Add one extra egg for a more cake-like texture.
For smoother drizzle, use melting wafers or stir in a small amount of vegetable oil.
Storage: Keep in an airtight container up to 1 week.
Freezing: Freeze decorated or undecorated brownies up to 3 months.
