Ingredients for Spooky Mummy Brownies

Here’s what you’ll need to bring these spooky treats to life:

For the Brownies:

• 1 box (18–20 oz) brownie mix (plus eggs, water, and oil as required)
• Or your favorite homemade brownie recipe

For the Mummy Decoration:

• 1 cup (6 oz) white chocolate chips or candy melts
• 24 candy eyes (store-bought or homemade)
• Optional: 1 teaspoon coconut oil for smoother melting

If you enjoy baking from scratch, consider pairing these brownies with more complex but equally delightful recipes like Vanilla Bean Brown Butter Cheesecake.

Step-by-Step Preparation for Mummy Brownies Recipe

1. Preheat and Prepare:
   Preheat your oven as instructed on the brownie mix or your recipe. Line a square 8×8 or 9×9 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Make the Brownies:
   Prepare the brownie batter, pour it into the pan, and smooth the surface. Bake until a toothpick comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Cool completely.
3. Slice the Brownies:
   Once cooled, remove from the pan and cut into 12 squares or rectangles.
4. Melt the Chocolate:
   In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals until smooth. Stir in coconut oil if needed.
5. Decorate the Mummies:
   Drizzle white chocolate in a zigzag pattern using a piping or zip-top bag. Press two candy eyes into each brownie.
6. Set and Serve:
   Let the chocolate harden. You can refrigerate them for quicker setting.

Tips for Perfectly Scary and Delicious Mummy Brownies

Want your boo brownies to look spooky yet delicious?

• Use high-quality white chocolate or candy melts for smooth drizzling.
• Let brownies cool completely to avoid melting your mummy “bandages.”
• Contrast is key! Darker brownies highlight the white drizzle beautifully.
• Press the eyes while the chocolate is still wet so they stick properly.
• Store in a cool, dry place to prevent the chocolate from getting soft.

And if you’re short on time, why not prep a sweet and easy dessert like No-Bake Coconut Cream Lush the night before?

Fun Variations for Boo Brownies and Other Halloween Sweets Ideas Easy

Looking to take your mummy brownies to the next level? Try these fun twists:

• Add Food Coloring: Dye your white chocolate to create red or green bandages.
• Mini Monsters: Cut brownies smaller for bite-sized mummy treats.
• Different Bases: Try Pumpkin Maple Blondies as a base instead of chocolate brownies.
• Vegan Version: Use dairy-free chocolate and egg replacers in the brownie base.

These variations make your Halloween sweets ideas easy and even more exciting.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Let’s make sure your mummy brownies come out spook-tacular:

• Decorating Warm Brownies: Chocolate will melt off if the brownies are warm.
• Overbaking: Dry brownies are no fun. Pull them out when slightly underdone.
• Too Much Drizzle: Overdoing the white chocolate can hide the eyes and look messy.
• Incorrect Slicing: Use a plastic knife or warm blade for clean cuts.

Avoiding these mistakes also applies to other desserts like Pumpkin Roll-Ups, which require neat presentation.

Presentation is everything, especially at a themed party! Try these ideas:

• Graveyard Scene: Place brownies on crushed cookie crumbs and add bone-shaped candy.
• Wrapped Party Bags: Use themed treat bags tied with black ribbon.
• Halloween Platter: Pair with other desserts like Halloween Cookies or Vegan Halloween Cupcakes.
