Description
Mummy Halloween Brownies are a spooky-cute crowd-pleaser: rich, fudgy squares “wrapped” in white chocolate bandages with candy eyes. They’re easy to decorate, fun for kids and adults, and perfect for party dessert tables.
Ingredients
1 box brownie mix
Eggs (as directed on brownie mix)
Oil (as directed on brownie mix)
Water (as directed on brownie mix)
1 cup white chocolate chips or white candy melts
Candy eyes (or mini chocolate chips as eyes)
Black icing or melted dark chocolate (for details)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven and prepare brownie mix according to package directions; bake in a greased or lined pan.
2. Cool brownies completely in the pan, then transfer to a cutting board.
3. Melt white chocolate chips/candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl at 50% power in 20–30 second bursts, stirring until smooth.
4. Cut brownies into even squares.
5. Dip a fork or piping bag into the melted white chocolate and drizzle over each square to create “bandage” stripes.
6. Place two candy eyes on each brownie while the drizzle is still soft so they adhere.
7. Add small details (stitches, mouth) with black icing or a thin drizzle of melted dark chocolate.
8. Let chocolate set at room temperature (or chill briefly) before serving.
Notes
Serving: Arrange on a festive platter with mini pumpkins or faux cobwebs for a centerpiece-worthy display.
Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temp up to 3 days, or refrigerate up to 1 week; bring to room temp before serving for best texture.
Tips: Use a sharp knife for clean cuts; if you don’t have candy eyes, use mini chocolate chips; vary drizzle thickness for a wrapped look.
Variation: Add sprinkles, crushed candy, or tiny chocolate “ghosts” on top; use colored melts for different mummy vibes.
FAQ:
1) Homemade vs mix? Either works—just cool completely before decorating.
2) No microwave? Melt white chocolate gently in a double boiler.
3) Freeze? Yes—wrap well and freeze up to 3 months; thaw before serving.
