3. How to Make Chewbacca Brownies: Step-by-Step

Preparing the Fudgy Brownie Base

Mix the Wet Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until well combined. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. This creates a smooth, glossy mixture that forms the foundation of your Chewbacca Brownies.

Combine the Dry Ingredients

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix to keep the brownies tender and fudgy.

Add the Chocolate Chips

Fold in the chocolate chips or chunks, ensuring an even distribution of melty goodness throughout the batter.

Bake the Brownies

Pour the batter into a greased or parchment-lined baking pan. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs. Let cool completely before decorating.

Designing the Wookiee Face

Once cooled, you can cut the brownies into rectangles or squares. Use edible black food coloring or edible markers to add Wookiee facial features, such as eyes, nose, and mouth. For a more textured look, consider attaching small edible fondant or chocolate pieces to imitate fur. Want to add a playful touch? Check out this carrot cake recipe for creative decorating ideas.
