Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a square 9x9-inch baking pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine unsalted butter, cocoa powder, and sugar. Heat over low flame until smooth.
  3. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool for about 10 minutes before whisking in eggs one at a time.
  4. Sift flour and a pinch of salt over the chocolate mixture and gently fold until no dry flour is visible.
  5. Pour the brownie batter into the pan, spreading it evenly and bake for 25-30 minutes.
  6. Let the brownies cool in the pan for about 30 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  7. Melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, mixing in black gel food coloring if desired.
  8. Drizzle melted chocolate over the brownies in a zigzag pattern and use a toothpick to create a spider web effect.
