Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 2 oz white chocolate for decoration

Instructions

  • Prepare Pan: Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease 8×8 pan or line with parchment paper.
  • Melt Butter: Melt butter in saucepan over low heat. Stir in both sugars until combined.
  • Add Wet Ingredients: Cool slightly, then whisk in eggs and vanilla until smooth.
  • Combine Dry Ingredients: Sift flour and cocoa powder. Fold into wet mixture until just combined.
  • Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in chocolate chips without overmixing.
  • Bake Brownies: Pour into pan. Bake 25-30 minutes until toothpick comes out mostly clean.
  • Create Spider Web: Cool completely. Melt white chocolate and pipe spider web designs on top.

Notes

  • Use room temperature eggs for smoother mixing and better texture
  • Don’t overbake – slightly underdone brownies stay fudgy and delicious
  • Let brownies cool completely before decorating for best web adhesion
  • Can be made 2 days ahead – add spider web decorations just before serving for best appearance
