Spooky Mummy Brownies – The Perfect Halloween Party Treat

Directions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) or as directed on the brownie mix package. Line an 8×8 or 9×9 inch pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it for easy removal.

Step 2: Mix the Brownie Batter

In a large bowl, mix together the brownie mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water. Stir until the batter is smooth and well-combined.

Step 3: Bake the Brownies

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan. Bake according to the time on the brownie mix package (usually 35-40 minutes), or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan.

Step 4: Cut the Brownies

Once the brownies have cooled, lift them out of the pan using the parchment paper. Cut them into 12-16 squares, depending on the size you prefer.

Step 5: Melt the White Chocolate

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white candy melts or white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is smooth and completely melted.

Step 6: Decorate the Brownies

Transfer the melted chocolate to a piping bag or a zip-top bag. Snip the corner of the bag and drizzle the chocolate over the brownies in zig-zag lines to mimic mummy bandages.

Step 7: Add the Eyes

While the chocolate is still soft, gently press two candy eyes onto each brownie.

Step 8: Let the Chocolate Set

Allow the brownies to set fully before serving or packaging for parties. Let the chocolate harden completely to ensure the eyes stay in place.

Fun Tips and Variations

Add some color: For a fun twist, use colored candy melts or tint the white chocolate with Halloween food coloring (like orange or purple) for a more festive look.
Change the decoration: Instead of mummy bandages, use the white chocolate to create spider webs or other spooky designs for a different Halloween flair.
Try different brownie mixes: Use a fudge, cakey, or gluten-free brownie mix to suit your preferences.

FAQs

1. Can I make these brownies without a brownie mix?

Yes! If you prefer homemade brownies, you can use your favorite brownie recipe in place of the store-bought mix.

2. Can I make these brownies ahead of time?

Yes, you can make the brownies a day ahead and just decorate them the day you plan to serve them. They will still be fresh and delicious!

3. Can I use regular chocolate chips instead of white chocolate?

Yes, you can! However, the white chocolate gives it a distinct mummy look. If you use regular chocolate chips, you can create a different Halloween decoration, like a creepy spider web.

4. Can I add other decorations to the brownies?

Absolutely! Feel free to add sprinkles, edible glitter, or candy corn to give your brownies an extra festive touch.

5. How do I store these brownies for longer freshness?

For longer freshness, store your brownies in an airtight container at room temperature. They can stay fresh for up to 3 days, but you can also refrigerate them if you want to extend their shelf life.
