Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (fan) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and caster sugar, then rub in the cold dairy-free butter until it resembles breadcrumbs. Press into the pan and bake for 20 minutes.
  3. Melt the dairy-free dark chocolate and remaining dairy-free butter over a bain-marie. In another bowl, whip the aquafaba and caster sugar until thick.
  4. Fold the melted chocolate into the whipped aquafaba. Sift in the cocoa powder and flour, mix until smooth. Stir in dairy-free chocolate chips and pour over the cooled shortbread.
  5. Bake the brownies for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
  6. Melt dairy-free dark chocolate and dairy-free cream together to make a ganache. Spread it over the cooled brownies.
  7. Melt the dairy-free white chocolate and pipe ghost shapes onto the ganache. Allow to set in the fridge for 1-2 hours.
  8. Lift the brownies from the pan using parchment paper, slice into squares, and serve.
