Use these directions to make Spider Web Brownies for your Halloween party.
Jump to Recipe
Whether you are hosting a Halloween party or you just want to make a fun treat for your family, these spider web brownies will be a hit.
You can start with your favorite brownie recipe or use a box of your favorite brownie mix. You can also make the frosting from scratch or pick up a can of frosting. You will heat the frosting to make it malleable, then put it in a baggy to pipe it on to the top of the brownie squares in a spiral. Drag a toothpick through the frosting to make the spider web.
Place your brownies on a plate and add toy spiders to complete the theme.
