- 1 box brownie mix (plus ingredients called for on the box)
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons vegetable shortening
- Black gel food coloring
- Prepare brownies according to package directions. Let cool completely.
- Melt white chocolate chips and shortening in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
- Stir in black gel food coloring until you achieve a deep black color.
- Transfer the black melted chocolate to a piping bag or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
- Pipe concentric circles of the black chocolate onto the cooled brownies, starting from the center and working outwards.
- Use a toothpick or skewer to drag lines from the center outwards through the black circles, creating a spiderweb effect.
- Let the chocolate set before cutting and serving.
Notes
- For a richer brownie, use a dark chocolate brownie mix.
- You can add a few drops of vanilla extract to the white chocolate mixture for extra flavor.
- Ensure the brownies are completely cool before decorating to prevent the chocolate from melting.
