VIRGIN CHOCOLATE CHUNK BROWNIES WITH MAPLE & BENTON BACON



Virgin Chocolate Chunk Brownies With Maple & Benton Bacon image

I created this recipe using whole grain pastry flour from Bobs Red Mill and Olive Oil from California Olive Ranch for a promo I was doing for them on my website 30A EATS. It was a big hit! Any Bacon or Maple Syrup will do, and if you want to leave out the Bacon you can. I love the sweet and salty flavor it gave to the brownies.

MOLTEN CHOCOLATE CHUNK BROWNIES

If you're not serving the brownie warm, let it cool in the tin, then turn out and slice into squares. It'll continue to set in the tin, but stay soft and fudgy in the center. The two types of sugar in these brownies work their magic in different ways. Caster sugar lends sweetness and helps create a smooth and crispy top. Brown sugar adds to the rich, moist center.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your brownies. Look for chocolate that is at least 70% cacao.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies in a preheated oven. This will help them rise evenly.
  • Don't overbake the brownies. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape.
  • Serve the brownies with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include ice cream, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce.
