Halloween Spider Web Brownies for Kids

Jessie Thompson
Halloween treats are some of the most fun things to make! It's the one time when you can invite creepy crawlers (gummy worms), dark food colorings, and even spooky elements into the kitchen, and nobody is weirded out by it! That's where these Halloween Spider Web Brownies for Kids come in. They are everything you love about a rich, fudgy brownie, and they are lovingly topped with melted marshmallows to make it look like you accidentally walked into the biggest web of your life! The kids (and adults) are going to love these!

Equipment

  • 1 Square pan
  • 2 small microwave safe bowls
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients
  

  • 7.56 oz. Giant Hershey's Chocolate Bar
  • 2 oz caramel chips
  • 12 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 ¼ cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 15 regular marshmallows

Instructions
 

  • First, preheat the oven to 350°F and line a square baking dish with parchment paper.
  • Second, melt half of the giant chocolate bar in the microwave in 30-second intervals. Save the other half for later.
  • Third, mix the butter and sugar in a large bowl, then beat in the eggs and vanilla for 1-2 minutes until the mixture becomes fluffy and light in color. (I use my stand mixer for this.)
  • Next, whisk in the melted chocolate.
  • Then, fold in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Try not to overmix, as this will make the brownies more cake-like in texture.
  • Fold in the remaining half of the chocolate bar after chopping it into pieces.
  • Then, transfer the brownie batter to the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes, depending on how fudgy you like your brownies, then cool completely.
  • In a separate bowl, melt the marshmallows in 30-second intervals.
  • Take the melted and slightly cooled marshmallow between your fingers and stretch across the cooled brownies to make spider webs.
  • Once you've made as many spider webs as you like on your brownies, cut them into 9 servings.
  • Finally, add more spiderwebs to each brownie before serving, and ENJOY!
