A simple and spooky Halloween treat featuring a brownie base topped with rich dark chocolate ganache and cute white chocolate ghosts with dark chocolate eyes.
1. Prepare your favorite brownie recipe or box mix according to package directions. The creator suggests using 1/2 cup less granulated sugar if making from a recipe. Allow the brownies to cool completely before proceeding.
2. **For the Dark Chocolate Ganache:** In a microwave-safe bowl, combine dark chocolate chips and a couple spoonfuls of milk. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring well after each, until the mixture is silky smooth.
3. Spread the prepared ganache evenly over the cooled brownies.
4. **For the White Chocolate Ghosts:** In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate in 30-second increments, mixing thoroughly between each interval, until smooth.
5. Line a baking pan with parchment paper. Using a spoon, create various sizes and shapes of ghost figures on the parchment paper.
6. Melt a small amount of dark chocolate (from the bar). Using a toothpick, carefully apply eyes and mouths to the white chocolate ghosts.
7. Refrigerate or freeze the chocolate ghosts until they are firm.
8. Once firm, gently place the ghosts on top of the ganache-covered brownies. Serve and enjoy your Halloween treat!
