Chocolate Brownies
recipe steps
- Preheat oven to 175 °C (350 °F) and line an 20×20 cm (8×8 inch) pan with parchment.
- Melt butter and chocolate together until smooth; let cool slightly.
- Whisk in sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in flour and salt until just combined.
- Pour into prepared pan and bake 20–25 min, until top is set but centre slightly soft.
- Cool completely and cut into cubes or crumble for parfait layers.
Sugar Cookies
recipe steps
- Make the dough:
Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolk and vanilla. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt until a soft dough forms. - Chill:
Wrap the dough and chill for 30 minutes. - Roll & cut shapes:
Roll out dough to 6 mm (¼ in) thick. Use your favourite ghost cookie cutter or take a heart cookie cutter and cut it in half to make ghost shapes. - Create eyes and mouth:
Take one of the cookies and punch out small holes using a piping tip, straw, or small tool to form the eyes and mouth.
Leave the other cookie whole to act as the “back” of the ghost. - Bake:
Bake at 175 °C (350 °F) for 8–10 minutes until lightly golden. Cool completely. - Assemble with marmalade:
Spread a thin layer of orange marmalade on the back of the cookie with holes. Sandwich it with the whole cookie on top. The marmalade will fill the holes, creating spooky “jammy eyes and mouth”.
