Description

A simple recipe for rich brownies topped with a candy corn layer, perfect for Halloween.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup candy corn

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat.
  3. Stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until combined.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  8. Sprinkle the candy corn evenly over the top of the batter.
  9. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
  10. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • For fudgier brownies, slightly underbake them.
  • You can press the candy corn lightly into the batter before baking if you prefer them more embedded.
