Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (125 grams) flour
- 3/4 cup (86 grams) dutch-process cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons (196 grams) refined coconut oil melted and cooled slightly
- 1 1/2 cups (300 grams) granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs 50 grams each, out of shell, room temperature
- 1/2 cup (85 grams) white chocolate chips or chopped white chocolate
- 24 candy eyeballs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 °F (175 °C) and line an 8”x8” pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, sugar, and vanilla extract. Add eggs one at a time, stirring just until combined.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until almost no flour streaks remain. Avoid overmixing.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes. A toothpick should come out wet but not with raw batter. Brownies will firm up as they cool.
- Allow to cool completely for about 1 hour, then chill for at least 2 hours for easier cutting. They can be stored for up to 3 days at room temperature or up to 4 days in the refrigerator.
- For 8 mummies, cut into 2"x3" rectangles. For 12 mummies, cut into 2"x2.6" pieces.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate at half power in 20-second bursts, stirring until smooth.
- Transfer most of the melted chocolate to a piping bag fitted with a Wilton tip 47 or a similar one. Pipe a mummy design onto the brownies.
- Dip candy eyeballs in the reserved chocolate and place them on the brownies.
- Chill for about 30 minutes until the chocolate hardens. Once decorated, keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Notes
Allowing brownies to chill makes cutting easier.
Brownies can be frozen for up to 3 months; thaw at room temperature before decorating.
Using dairy-free chocolate ensures this recipe can accommodate dietary restrictions.
