Ingredients
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar (light or dark)
1 tsp baking powder
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup pink food coloring
1/2 cup purple food coloring
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and baking powder.
- In another bowl, whisk eggs and vanilla until frothy. Stir wet ingredients into dry until just combined.
- Divide batter into two bowls. Mix pink food coloring into one and purple into the other.
- Drop spoonfuls of each batter into the prepared pan. Use a toothpick to swirl the colors into a bat-wing-like pattern.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs. Cool completely in the pan.
- Cut into bat shapes with a cookie cutter or sharp knife and serve.
Notes
Try pastel green or blue food coloring for a magical look.
Add chocolate chips or white chocolate chunks for extra richness.
Top with sprinkles or crushed cookies before baking for crunch.
Use gel food coloring for more vibrant swirls.
