These Spooky Mummy Brownies are the ultimate Halloween treat—rich, fudgy, and wrapped in sweet “bandages.” Each brownie is dipped in smooth chocolate and decorated with icing and candy eyes for a fun, festive finish. Perfect for parties, bake sales, or cozy nights at home, they’re easy to make and even easier to enjoy.

  • Total Time: 90 minutes
  • Yield: 9 large or 12 small brownies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 tbsp butter

  • 1½ cups dark chocolate chips or chunks

  • 1 cup sugar

  • ¼ cup dark brown sugar

  • 3 eggs, at room temperature

  • 1 tsp espresso powder (optional)

  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract (Alcohol-Free)

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour

  • ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • ½ tsp baking powder

  • ½ tsp kosher salt

  • 1 package candy eyes

  • 20 oz semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

  • 23 tbsp heavy cream, to thin

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×9-inch pan with parchment paper so it hangs over the sides.

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt butter and 1 cup chocolate chips for 1 minute. Stir until smooth. Microwave another 20 seconds if needed.

  • Add sugar and brown sugar, whisking until dissolved.

  • In a stand mixer, beat eggs for 2–3 minutes until frothy. Slowly stream in the chocolate mixture while mixing.

  • Add espresso powder and Vanilla Extract (Alcohol-Free).

  • Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix until just blended.

  • Fold in the remaining ½ cup of chocolate chips.

  • Spread batter evenly into the pan and bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs. Let cool completely.

  • Cut into brownies and freeze for 15 minutes.

  • Melt coating chocolate with coconut oil, then let cool slightly.

  • Dip brownies into the melted chocolate, coat evenly, and place on a parchment-lined sheet. Chill for 15 minutes.

  • For icing, whisk powdered sugar with cream until thick but smooth.

  • Transfer icing into a piping bag and draw mummy “bandages.”

  • Add candy eyes and let the icing harden before serving.

Notes

For cleaner edges, chill brownies before cutting. Use room-temperature ingredients for the best texture. To adjust sweetness, use darker chocolate chips or reduce sugar slightly.
