Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup refined coconut oil or butter melted and cooled
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or full-fat canned coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips or chopped white chocolate

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 inch pan with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, combine melted coconut oil or butter with sugar and vanilla extract. Add eggs one at a time.
  4. Fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined.
  5. Pour batter into pan and bake 15-20 minutes. Check with a toothpick for moist crumbs.
  6. Cool completely, then refrigerate for at least one hour.
  7. Heat cream until steaming, pour over semi-sweet chocolate, let sit 10 minutes, then stir until smooth.
  8. Cut brownies into squares, spread ganache, then pipe spirals with melted white chocolate. Drag a toothpick from center outward to create spiderwebs.

Notes

Allow brownies to cool and chill fully before decorating for clean designs. Use a sharp knife wiped between cuts for neat squares.
