Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Batter
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Mummy Decoration
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- Candy eyeballs
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until smooth. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add these dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, distributing them evenly in the batter.
- Pour Batter into Pan: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake Brownies: Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with a few crumbs attached.
- Cool Brownies: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Melt White Chocolate: Once cooled, melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
- Decorate with White Chocolate: Transfer the melted white chocolate to a piping bag or a resealable plastic bag with a small corner cut off. Drizzle the white chocolate over the brownies to create mummy bandages.
- Add Candy Eyeballs: Place candy eyeballs onto the brownies to give them a fun mummy appearance. Let the white chocolate set before cutting the brownies into squares.
Notes
- Use parchment paper for easy removal and cleaner edges.
- Do not overmix the brownie batter to keep them fudgy.
- Check the brownies starting at 25 minutes to avoid overbaking.
- Let the brownies cool completely before decorating to ensure the white chocolate sets properly.
- Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
