Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 7

one 20-ounce box brownie mix, plus ingredients called for to make the brownies
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup butterscotch or peanut butter chips
1/2 cup toffee bits
about 3/4 of a 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup M&Ms

Steps:

  • Please read over the baking notes below for tips before beginning the recipe.
  • Preheat oven to 325F (or 350F is that's what's called for on your box of brownie mix), line a 9x9-inch pan with foil for easier cleanup, spray with cooking spray; set aside.
  • Mix up the brownie batter according to the ingredients called for on the package (egg(s), oil, water), turn the batter out into prepared pan, and bake for about 30 minutes, or until brownies are about 90% cooked through, but not completely since they are going back into the oven again for approximately 30 more minutes.
  • Evenly sprinkle the brownies with the coconut, chocolate chips, butterscotch or peanut butter chips, toffee bits, and evenly drizzle with sweetened condensed milk.
  • Return the pan to the oven, turn oven temp to 325F if it wasn't already there, and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the top is becoming lightly golden browned and the sweetened condensed milk is not pooling.
  • Return the pan from the oven, even sprinkle with the M&Ms, and bake for about 5 to 10 more minutes, or until the top is as golden browned and set as desired.
  • Cool brownies in the pan for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.

BROWNIE COOKIE BARS



Brownie Cookie Bars image

This brownie cookie bar recipe kind of combines brownies and cookies, except that the brownies are square and thin enough to be considered a cookie! When fully cooked, sprinkle powdered sugar over top, cut into squares, and they're ready to eat! If you scale down the recipe, you may want to use a smaller pan because these are meant to be thin. Trust me, they go fast!

7 LAYER BROWNIE BARS



7 LAYER BROWNIE BARS image

Easy, decadent, and only 1 pan--no bowls, etc. I found this on the Ghiradelli brownie mix box. New take on the old 7 layer bars. Husband and co-workers loved them. One difference for me--I used 2 cups of chocolate chips and no butterscotch--hubby does not like butterscotch.

Provided by DONNA RIVERS

Categories     Chocolate

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 stick butter, melted
1 box brownie mix, small--not family size
1 c coconut
1 c butterscotch chips
1 c chocolate chips
1 c chopped nuts (pecan, walnut, or almond)
1 can(s) sweetened condensed milk

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350. Spread melted butter over 9 x 13 pan. Evenly spread/sprinkle dry brownie mix(straight from the box!) over melted butter. Continute to spread/sprinkle each ingredient over brownie mix, in order listed. End with Sweetened Condensed Milk, drizzled over entire pan. Bake 35 minutes, or until bubbly around edges.
  • 2. Important--Allow to COOL COMPLETELY before cutting into bars. Very Rich!!! Needs ice cream to cut the sweetness.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. For the best flavor, use a good-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate. You can also use a combination of chocolate chips and chopped chocolate.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overbaking the brownies will make them dry.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the brownies for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

These 7-layer brownie bars are a delicious and decadent treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dessert that will be enjoyed by everyone. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these 7-layer brownie bars a try!
