Spooky Witches’ Hat Brownies

This recipe features fudgy brownies baked to perfection, topped with a chocolate kiss to resemble a witch’s hat, and finished with a piece of candy corn for a playful touch. It takes about 45 minutes to prepare and bake, serving approximately 12 people.

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
12 chocolate kisses
12 pieces of candy corn

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
Make the Brownie Batter: In a large bowl, melt the butter and mix in the sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Bake the Brownies: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Cool and Decorate: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, cut them into squares. Top each brownie square with a chocolate kiss and place a piece of candy corn on top to create the witch’s hat.
Serve: Arrange the decorated brownies on a platter and enjoy your spooky Halloween treat!
