Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Saucepan
  • 8-inch Square Baking Pan
  • Piping Bag or Zip-top Bag

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons black sesame paste
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup white chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, then remove from heat and stir in the sugar until combined.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Stir in the cocoa powder, flour, black sesame paste, and salt until the batter is smooth and uniform.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  • Bake for 25 minutes until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Let the brownies cool completely in the pan.
  • Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring between each until smooth.
  • Spoon the melted white chocolate into a small zip-top bag, snip a tiny corner, and pipe a spiderweb pattern over the cooled brownies.

Notes

Melt the white chocolate slowly to avoid seizing, and pipe the web lines right after the brownies reach room temperature so the design sets cleanly. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. If the black sesame paste is thick, warm it briefly before adding to the batter for easier mixing.
