Halloween and Christmas is my favourite time of the year! I love Halloween and Halloween movies. One of my favourite Halloween movies is Hocus Pocus with Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy and Sarah Jessica Parker. I have been watching this movie every year for as long as I can remember. If you haven’t seen the film yet, I highly recommend it. Honestly, I’m not sure how you managed to not see it. TV play it non-stop around Halloween.

Wait until these brownies are completely cold or you’ll get a chocolate mess from the heat. I found popping the brownies in the freezer for 15 minutes or so made them easier to cut into rectangles without much stickiness. Plus, decorating them cold makes the chocolate dry very quick.

For a quick fix you can always use a boxed gluten free brownie mix then decorate them as spell books as I have done. Or you can use my 3 ingredient Nutella Brownies or my Easy Gluten Free Fudgy Brownies but I highly recommend using this recipe.
