CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO BROWNIES
I got this out of a cook book that I bought on sale at the BX on base. When I saw these brownies in it I was instantly in love. I baked them the very same day, and WOW, what a brownie. They are so very fudgey and moist, just like a brownie should be. :)

DEEP CHOCOLATE & PISTACHIO BROWNIES
Found in Family Circle. These have such a nice deep flavor of chocolate and the addition of some espresso does not hurt one bit! I could not find mini Hershey Kisses so I used some Nestle Semisweet Chocolate Chips and they worked fine.

CHOCOLATE CARDAMOM BROWNIES WITH CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO ICING
I love cardamom! I can't get enough of it, so I modified two other 'Zaar recipes (32204 and 97213) to satisfy my cardamom craving. Voilà, one more way to enjoy the subtle delights of cardamom.

Steps:
- Preheat over to 350°F.
- Grease two 8x8 glass pans or one larger pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the butter and cocoa powder.
- Add sugar, mix well.
- Add eggs and stir until well combined.
- Add vanilla, cardamom, and salt, stir well. Add in flour (until combined), but do not overmix.
- Spoon mixture into pan(s) and bake for approximately 25 minutes (depending on pan size), until toothpick inserted into middle comes out clean.
- Set brownies on rack to dry.
- Once brownies are out of the oven, to make the ganache icing, using a double boiler, combine the chocolate, cream, and butter. Keep stirring until combined.
- Remove mixture from heat. Stir occasionally until cool. Spread over brownies. Top with chopped pistachios.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the brownies will taste. Use a chocolate that has a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in tough brownies. Mix only until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a greased and floured baking pan. This will help the brownies to come out of the pan easily.
- Bake the brownies until they are just set. Overbaking will result in dry brownies. A toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape and prevent them from crumbling.
- Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
These chocolate pistachio brownies are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual get-together to a special celebration. With their rich chocolate flavor and crunchy pistachio topping, these brownies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
