When my husband saw this recipe on my computer screen he asked me what made Gravestone Brownies different from regular brownies. I told him I liked the name because it seemed appropriate for Halloween but he kept saying, “if you are giving them a name, doesn’t it have to relate to what’s unique about them? Like “Cajun Chicken” means the chicken is made with Cajun spices.” I thought it about it for a second and replied, “they’re so delicious and to die for”. He was still dubious, so I gave him a brownie to try and finally….he agreed!
These brownies are so rich and chocolatey I’m not sure I would advise making them for any kid under the age of 5, because when my 4 1/2 year old saw them cooling on the kitchen counter, I think he nearly fainted from excitement (I still think “Gravestone Brownies” is better than “Fainting Brownies”).
If you’re having a get together for an older crowd, these are seriously easy and a ton of fun to make!
Gravestone Brownies
Ingredients
- 3/4 Cup all purpose flour
- 3/4 Cup cocoa powder
- 3/4 Tsp kosher salt
- 15 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 Cups sugar

- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 Cup Semisweet Chocolate, chopped (You can also use chocolate chips)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 F.
- Mix the first 3 ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
- In a standing mixer or bowl, whisk the melted butter, sugar and vanilla.
- Add the eggs one at a time until combined, then slowly mix in the dry ingredients and semi sweet chocolate pieces until combined.
- Pour the batter into a greased and parchment lined 9×13 baking dish and bake for 30 minutes.

- *When cutting your brownies, use a long serrated knife and wipe it off in between cuts.

I answered these questions and they turned out beautifully.
Grease the pan and then put parchment on top.
For the tombstones, I cut pieces of paper double the length of the “tomb” brownies. For example, cut the brownies to be 3″ long and 2″ wide and then a piece of paper that is 6″ long (and about 2″ wide.) I then colored the tombstone on the top 3″ of the paper, folded it in half and put the brownie on the bottom half of the paper. Then the tombstone stands upright on its own.
I am going to make these today for a Halloween play date we have tomorrow, but I am waiting to hear these questions answered please!
Do you grease the parchment paper or the pan?
And how do you attach the gravestones to the brownies? I assume they are just made from paper?
Thank you!
How are the “gravestones” attached? Looking forward to making these for my kids’ Halloween party at school! Thanks for yet another great recipe 🙂
I’ve got a question. Do you count 15 Tbsp of already melted butter? Or 15 Tbsp of Butter before its melted?

These smell AMAZING and I have to admit I am having a hard time waiting for them to cool off before I dive in…but I’m pretty sure taking a spoon to the pan is completely acceptable 🙂
