Equipment
- 1 9x13 inch baking pan greased
- 1 Mixing Bowl large
- 1 Whisk
- 1 piping bag for icing
Ingredients
Brownie Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
Mummy Decoration
- 1 cup white icing or melted white chocolate
- 24 candy eyes
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Gradually blend into the dry ingredients until smooth.
- Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before decorating.
- While the brownies cool, prepare your icing by transferring it into a piping bag with a narrow tip.
- Once cooled, use the piping bag to drizzle the icing in a back-and-forth motion over the brownies to create a mummy effect. Add candy eyes to complete the look.
Serving
- Cut the brownies into 12 pieces and serve on a festive platter. Ideal for Halloween parties or spooky-themed events.
Storage
- Keep any leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. They can also be refrigerated to retain freshness for up to a week.
