Ingredients

For the Brownies:

  • 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on the box)
  • OR
  • ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ⅓ cup (40g) cocoa powder
  • ½ cup (65g) all-purpose flour
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp baking powder

For the Ghost Decorations:

  • 12 large marshmallows
  • 1 cup (225g) white chocolate chips or candy melts
  • Candy eyeballs
  • Black decorating gel or melted dark chocolate

Instructions

  1. Bake the brownies: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare boxed mix or homemade batter and bake in a lined 8×8 or 9×9-inch pan for 20–25 minutes. Cool completely.
  2. Cut and top: Slice cooled brownies into 12 squares and place a marshmallow on each.
  3. Melt white chocolate: Microwave white chocolate chips in 20-second intervals until smooth.
  4. Create ghosts: Spoon melted chocolate over each marshmallow to form a draped ghost shape. Add candy eyes while chocolate is still warm.
  5. Add faces: Once set, draw ghost faces using black decorating gel or melted dark chocolate.
  6. Let set: Let brownies rest until chocolate firms up. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Cool brownies completely: Prevents marshmallows and chocolate from melting.
  • Use quality white chocolate: Ensures smooth draping over ghosts.
  • Decorate in batches: So chocolate doesn’t harden before adding eyes.
  • Storage: Keep in airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze un-decorated brownies for up to 2 months.
  • Make it fun: Let kids draw their own spooky or silly faces!
