Ingredients
  

For the Brownies

  • 2 large Large Eggs Flax eggs can create a vegan version.
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Use a gluten-free blend for a gluten-free option.

Equipment

  • 8x8-inch baking pan
  • Medium saucepan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Piping bag

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and cocoa powder. Stir until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  3. Whisk in the large eggs one at a time, making sure each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Mix until glossy and well-blended.
  4. Sift together the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt in a separate bowl. Gently fold this dry mixture into the chocolate batter.
  5. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  6. Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  7. Melt the white chocolate chips until smooth and mix in a drop of black gel food coloring if desired.
  8. Use a piping bag or a spoon to drizzle the melted white chocolate over the brownies in a spider web pattern.
  9. Once set, cut the brownies into squares to serve. Enjoy your Spooky Spider Web Halloween Brownies!
