Spiderweb brownies are a fun, spooky twist on classic brownies, topped with a marshmallow spiderweb for Halloween.

  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: 9 brownies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 ounces vegan mini chocolate chips, divided
  • 1/4 cup Black 10/12 cocoa powder
  • 1 cup 1:1 gluten-free flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup marshmallows
  • 1/4 cup olive oil (for melting chocolate)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat an 8×8 baking pan with coconut oil and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. Melt 1 cup of mini chocolate chips and olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly. Set aside.
  3. Whisk cocoa powder, gluten-free flour, and salt in a medium bowl.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla. Add melted chocolate and whisk until combined.
  5. Mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients with a rubber spatula until just combined. Fold in remaining chocolate chips.
  6. Pour batter into the pan and spread evenly. Bake for 34-40 minutes until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Cool in the pan on a rack for 1 hour. The top will crack and form a flaky crust.
  8. Microwave marshmallows in 20-second intervals until soft enough to stir.
  9. Use food-safe gloves to pull melted marshmallows into a spiderweb shape and place on cooled brownies.
  10. Remove brownies from the pan and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  11. Slice into 9 squares and serve.

Notes

  • For gooey brownies, slightly underbake and let them set while cooling.
  • Use a toothpick to check doneness; it should have a few moist crumbs.
  • Let brownies cool completely before slicing for clean edges.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
