7. High Hat Brownie Cupcakes

I definitely saved the most indulgent recipe for this spot. These are actually brownie cupcakes and are just as yummy as they sound.

You make each one with a double stack of brownies separated by super rich marshmallow fluff frosting. Top them with more frosting and dip them in chocolate before finishing with a literal cherry on top.

8. Halloween Candy Brownies

These are similar to the witch’s brew recipe except you put the candy at the bottom here. They are homemade rather than from a box.

Decorate them with tombstones and bones if you want. They are super scrumptious either way.

9. Classic Fat Witch Dark Chocolate Brownies

There is nothing overtly Halloween about these except for the name. It refers to the bakery they come from rather than the treats themselves.

They deserve a spot here because they are so incredible. A Fat Witch bakery copycat is definitely themed enough for me.
