Method & Directions
-
- 35 Minutes
- Prepare
تم نسخ الرابطGather all ingredients. Grease an 8x8 baking dish and line with parchment paper.
- Melt
تم نسخ الرابطPlace chopped chocolate into a heatproof bowl. Melt butter in a sauce pan over medium heat and pour over chocolate. Let sit for 5 minutes until chocolate starts to melt. Mix well until chocolate has completely melted.
- Mix
تم نسخ الرابطCombine eggs and sugar in a bowl and mix with an electric mixer on high speed until light and pale yellow in color. Add vanilla extract and salt. Continue mixing on high for 1 minute.
- Reserve
تم نسخ الرابطTransfer in chocolate-butter mixture and mix until well combined for 30 seconds. Fold in flour with a spatula until flour has disappeared. Set aside 2 teaspoons of brownie batter.
- Spread
تم نسخ الرابطTransfer remaining batter into the baking dish and distribute evenly. Smooth out the top with a spatula.
- Shape
تم نسخ الرابطFor the cheesecake ghosts combine softened cream cheese, sugar, egg white, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Whisk until mixture is well combined.
- Decorate
تم نسخ الرابطSet 9 tablespoons of cheesecake dollops onto the brownie batter in an even pattern. Spread out dollops into ghost-like shapes with a spoon and a bamboo skewer.
- Bake
تم نسخ الرابطTransfer reserved brownie batter into a small plastic bag, snip off one corner, and pipe 2 eyes and a mouth onto each cheesecake ghost. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Cool
تم نسخ الرابطBake brownies in the center of the oven until edges are lightly golden brown and the center is just set, 35 to 40 minutes. Because these are very fudgy, chewy style brownies, a toothpick will not come out clean, so that's not a reliable test for this recipe.
- Cut
تم نسخ الرابطAllow brownies to cool completely in the pan before transferring them to a plate and cutting them into squares.
It is important to use unsweetened chocolate. The cheesecake ghost component of the recipe makes a few tablespoons extra. That can be swirled into the bottom of the brownie pan, or simply added to the top wherever it will fit.
