SPIDER WEB BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper or foil (if you using foil, spray with non-stick cooking spray).
• Combine the brownie mix and ingredients.
• Pour the brownie batter into the baking dish and bake for 45-50 minutes.
• Insert a toothpick in the center of the brownies around 45 minutes, if it comes out clean the brownies are done.
• Remove from the oven and let cool.
• Once cool, cut the brownies into 9 squares.
• Scoop the frosting into a microwave-safe dish and heat for about 10 seconds.
• Fill the small sandwich baggy about 1/2 full with vanilla frosting.
• Use the kitchen scissors to snip one corner.
• Starting at the center of each brownie, gently squeeze the sandwich baggy and make a spiral with the frosting.
• Use the toothpicks to drag the frosting from the center to the outer edges of the brownie.
• Repeat with all the brownies.

HALLOWEEN BROWNIES

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Generously coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray and line with parchment with a 2-inch overhang on the long sides. Coat the parchment with the spray as well.
• Whisk together the flour and cocoa in small bowl. Set aside.
• Fill a medium saucepan with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Combine the butter and 8 ounces of the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over the saucepan and heat, stirring, until melted and smooth, about 6 minutes. Set aside. Reserve the saucepan and water.
• Vigorously whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla, salt and eggs in a large bowl until the mixture is light and foamy. Stir in the chocolate-butter mixture. Fold in the flour mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely.
• Meanwhile, bring the water in the reserved saucepan back to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Set another medium heatproof bowl over the saucepan, add the remaining bittersweet chocolate and heat, stirring, until melted, about 6 minutes.
• Use the parchment overhang to remove the cooled brownie from the baking dish and transfer to an upside down rimmed baking sheet. Trim the parchment so that it is flush with the brownie edge and slightly hidden.
• Transfer 1/4 cup of the melted chocolate to a small bowl and keep warm. Pour the remaining chocolate over the brownie and spread to evenly cover. Cool until set.
• Cut off the uncoated ends of the biscuit sticks (discard or eat) so only the chocolate-covered parts remain. Cut each chocolate-covered part into 8 equal pieces. In pairs, dip one end of each small piece into the reserved melted chocolate and lay the pairs on a baking sheet so that they overlap slightly in the shape of a V. Repeat with remaining biscuit pieces until you have 32 total Vs (these will be the legs for your spiders). Refrigerate until set.
• Trim the bottoms off the malted milk balls so they lay flat. Set aside.
• Microwave the marshmallows in a medium microwave-safe bowl, stirring once or twice, until melted, about 30 seconds.
• Working near the brownie, dip the tips of your fingers in the melted marshmallow. Lightly press your fingers together then pull them apart, stretching out webbed bands of marshmallow. Carefully place on the top and sides of the brownie to create a spider web pattern.
• To make spiders on top of the marshmallow web: arrange the trimmed malted milk balls on the web cut-side down. Place a chocolate-coated candy in front of each malted milk ball, pressing gently to adhere to the chocolate. Arrange 4 sets of legs on each side of each spider body, pressing gently to adhere. Lightly dust the spiders with red luster dust.
• Cut the brownie into squares and serve.

HALLOWEEN BROWNIES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line a 24 x 20cm brownie tin with baking parchment. Melt the butter and dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a small pan of just simmering water. Stir until completely smooth, then leave to cool for 10 mins.
• Beat the eggs and sugar with an electric whisk until thick and pale - the mixture should double in volume and leave a trail when the beaters are lifted. Pour the cooled dark chocolate mixture around the edge of the bowl. Sift over the flour and cocoa, add the milk chocolate, and gently fold everything together with a spatula or large metal spoon. Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 35-40 mins.
• Meanwhile, make the 'eyeballs'. Melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over the pan of just simmering water. Stir until smooth. Dip each cookie into the chocolate to cover one side. Stick a sugar-coated chocolate in the centre of each, then leave to set. When the chocolate is fully dry, pipe a pupil and red veins onto each eyeball using the icing pens.
• Remove the traybake from the oven, and immediately push the eyeballs into the surface in even rows - do this gently, so they're just pushed in slightly. Leave to cool completely. Cut into 12 squares.

SPOOKY HALLOWEEN BROWNIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325° for dark or nonstick pan). Line 9-inch square pan with foil, allowing some to hang over edges of pan. Spray bottom and sides of foil with cooking spray. Make and bake brownies as directed on box. Cool completely, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Using foil to lift, remove brownie from pan, and peel foil away. Transfer brownies to serving platter or cutting board.
• In each of 2 small bowls, place 1/3 cup frosting; add neon green food color to one, and purple food color to other to desired shades. Spoon each colored frosting into separate small resealable food-storage plastic bag; partially seal bags. Cut off about 1/4-inch corner from each bag. Squeeze frosting into mounds over top of brownie, alternating colors and size of mounds.
• Decorate as desired using candy eyeballs on frosting mounds. Cut into 4 rows by 4 rows. Store loosely covered at room temperature.

COBWEB 'BOX' BROWNIE BITES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Prepare 2 boxes of brownie mix according to instructions on box. Pour into a greased 9x9-inch (23x23-cm) square pan. Bake according to instructions on box.
• Cut each tray of brownies into 25 small squares. Form each brownie square into a ball, rolling in palms until smooth.
• In a microwave-safe bowl, add the white chocolate chips and microwave in 30 second intervals until smooth, about 1 minute and 30 seconds total.
• In a microwave-safe bowl, add the milk chocolate chips and microwave in 30 second intervals until smooth, about 1 minute and 30 seconds total.
• Turn a plastic sandwich bag inside out and hold it from the inside with one hand. Spoon the white chocolate into the bag. Turn the bag back out making sure chocolate does not fall out the opening. Seal it closed. Cut the corner of the bag, keeping in mind the more you cut off the larger your piping hole will be.
• Coat the brownie balls in the melted milk chocolate using a fork. Place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and chill until chocolate has hardened, about 20 minutes.
• Place one of the milk chocolate brownie bites onto a clean surface.
• Using the white chocolate piping bag make one dot in the middle of the ball. Draw a circle around the dot. Draw a larger circle around the second circle.
• Using a toothpick starting from the inner dot drag the chocolate downward crossing each circle. Repeat 6 times.
• Enjoy!
