A tray of dark chocolate poison apple brownies with a bright green glaze and chocolate drizzle.

Poison Apple Brownies

Fudgy dark chocolate brownies topped with a vibrant, tart green apple glaze for a spooky, fairy-tale inspired treat.

  • Total Time: PT55M
  • Yield: 16 brownies 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups powdered sugar (for glaze)
2–3 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon apple extract
Neon green gel food coloring
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (melted for drizzle)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined and slightly glossy.
Step 3: Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 4: Sift together the cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula until just combined.
Step 5: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Step 6: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan. While cooling, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, apple extract, and green food coloring to create the glaze.
Step 7: Pour the green glaze over the cooled brownies, spreading evenly. Drizzle with melted dark chocolate to create a ‘poison’ effect, let set, and slice into squares.

Notes

Ensure the brownies are completely cold before glazing, otherwise the glaze will melt and run off the sides.
