Instructions
 

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Begin by melting 1 cup of unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring gently until fully melted. Remove from heat and let cool for about 5 minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, pour in the cooled melted butter and add 2 cups of granulated sugar. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  • Crack 4 large eggs into the bowl, adding them one at a time while mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ½ teaspoon of baking powder.
  • Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, folding gently until just combined.
  • Pour the brownie batter into a prepared 9x13 inch baking pan and spread it evenly. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick; it should come out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Allow the brownies to cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Dip the tops of 12 chocolate ice cream cones in melted chocolate and sprinkle with Halloween-themed sprinkles.
  • In a bowl, combine 2 cups of powdered sugar, ¼ cup of milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and green food coloring. Whisk until smooth.
  • Spread a generous layer of green frosting over each brownie square.
  • Place the decorated chocolate ice cream cones upside down on top of each frosted brownie.
  • Sprinkle Halloween-themed sprinkles around the brownies for an extra festive touch.

Notes

For best results, allow brownies to cool completely before frosting and experimenting with different toppings can enhance the treat's appearance.
