Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Base:
- 1 batch best ever chewy brownies
- 8 tablespoons (1/2 cup / 113 grams) unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup (200 grams) granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup (90 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup (50 grams) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Decoration:
- 1/3 cup (56 grams) white candy melts
- 1/3 cup (56 grams) white baking chocolate
Optional Garnish:

Instructions
- Craft the brownie base using a tried-and-true chewy brownie recipe, ensuring a rich and decadent foundation for your Halloween treat.
- Transfer the freshly baked brownies to a cooling rack, allowing them to reach room temperature completely. For precision cutting, refrigerate for 30-45 minutes until they firm up.
- Using a sharp knife, slice the chilled brownies into either 9 generously sized squares or 16 more petite, bite-sized portions, depending on your preference for serving.
Notes
- Chill brownies thoroughly before cutting to achieve clean, precise edges that showcase your Halloween treat’s spooky design.
- Use a sharp, hot knife wiped clean between each slice to prevent brownie crumbs from disrupting your perfect square shapes.
- Add festive Halloween decorations like candy corn, orange sprinkles, or spooky chocolate spider web designs to transform classic brownies into a seasonal celebration.
- Consider using food-safe Halloween-themed stencils or silicone molds to create unique shapes that make your brownies extra memorable for the holiday.
