ORANGE BROWNIES
A woman named Brenda Jacobson gave out this recipe at a church activity, and I snatched it right up! So wonderful, easy, and different. At brunches I'll serve this alongside a mint brownie for a different selection and it gets rave reviews. My kids even prefer these over the original.

CRANBERRY-ORANGE BROWNIES
This is the perfect fall brownie! I absolutely love how these come out. The orange blossom water adds a delicate sweetness to the fudgy chocolate, while the cranberries give a surprising tangy flavor. The only problem is these brownies do not last very long--they'll be gone the second you put them on the table!

TRIPLE ORANGE FUDGY BROWNIES WITH ORANGE GLAZED PECANS
This is truly a labor of love. After all my conversations with the ladies in "The Power of Orange" group in Town Square I kept thinking about what I could make with orange marmalade and Tang drink mix that I bought. I love chocolate and orange mixed together and so I began thinking and thinking. Sorta like Winnie the Pooh when he...

Steps:
- 1. Prepare you brownie mix and pour into a greased 9X13 pan
- 2. Blend the cream cheese, marmalade, powdered sugar, orange juice, vanilla together. Whisk your eggs in a separate bowl and then add to the mix. Blend well. Should be a creamier easy spreadable consistancy. Now pour that over the brownies mix and gently spread over the top to cover. Next, take your fudge sauce and drizzle on top of cream cheese mixture. I used a knife and spreaded it out over the top. Bake as directed at 350 degrees but check on it. It may take more time due to the layering.
- 3. Prepare your frosting and set aside. The frosting was harder to give you amounts because I just kept putting more tang until I got my desired color and taste. Also, you may want to put more or less powdered sugar too.
- 4. The pecans are extremely tasty but I burnt them to blackness the first batch trying to roast them. lol Seriously though, they are expensive and I told myself you have to eat those. lol....I started eating them and couldn't eat anymore because they were too burnt. Well, you take this mixture (except for pecans) and cook in in a pan till it comes to a boil. I cooked mine for a few minutes and then took it off the burner. But, you want to cook it longer till a syrup type texture. Maybe 8 to 10 minutes. Then, pour your 2 cups of roasted pecans into the glaze and mix thoroughly. Then place them on parchment paper and spread them out to dry.
- 5. Once you remove your brownies from oven let cool and then ice. Top with your orange glazed pecans.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 13x9-inch pan.
- 2. Stir together flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Add butter, eggs, orange extract, and orange zest. Using a mixer, beat until well blended. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes, or until light golden brown and set. Remove from oven, allow to cool and pierce entire cake with a fork. Spread the Orange Cream Cheese Frosting over completely cooled brownies. Cut into squares.
- 3. FROSTING: In a large mixing bowl, whip the butter and cream cheese together with a mixer. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar until it is all combined and smooth. Beat in the orange zest and juice. Spread over brownies.
Tips:
- Use fresh oranges: Fresh oranges provide the best flavor and aroma to your brownies. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use store-bought orange juice or zest, but the flavor will be less intense.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in dry, tough brownies. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached: If the toothpick comes out clean, the brownies are overbaked and will be dry.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help 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 1 week: You can also freeze the brownies for up to 2 months.
Conclusion:
These orange brownies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their moist, tender crumb and bright citrus flavor, they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give these orange brownies a try. You won't be disappointed!
