MY SPECIAL BROWNIES



My Special Brownies image

So rich and fudgy, so many raves, so easy to make! Obtained this recipe from my late MIL and have taken it everywhere... My kids request it... my nieces and nephews have rec'd it in "care packages"... my classmates in grad school gained new respect for me when I shared a pan of these w/ them... *smile* Recipe is easily doubled, which I always do when taking the brownies somewhere... an 8x8" pan is never enough! The package size is an estimate b/c I do not have one on hand to check.

DOT'S SPECIAL BROWNIES

This recipe has been handed down from my mom to me just recently. The original recipe was from my aunt's personal recipe collection. They freeze very well for make ahead treats. This recipe uses oats, chocolate chips and has a nice orange glaze that is poured over the top of the brownies once they are removed from the oven.

Tips:

  • Use top-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better the brownies will be. Look for high-quality chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies in a preheated oven: This will help the brownies to rise evenly.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from crumbling.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature: Brownies will keep for up to 3 days at room temperature or up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

These special brownies are a delicious and decadent treat that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your brownies turn out perfectly every time. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give these special brownies a try.
