A Chocolate brownie , or simply a brownie, is a chocolate baked dessert bar. Brownies come in a variety of forms and may be either fudgy or cakey, depending on their density. Brownies often, but not always, have a glossy "skin" on their upper crust. They may also include nuts, frosting, chocolate chips, or other ingredients. A variation made with brown sugar and vanilla rather than chocolate in the batter is called a blond brownie or blondie. The brownie was developed in the United States at the end of the 19th century and popularized there during the first half of the 20th century.
Let's get baking!😋
- 2 Teaspoons of vanilla extract
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 Large eggs
- 4 Sticks softened for frosting butter
- 8 Squares of unsweetened chocolate
- 1 Cup sifted flour
- 1 Box sifted confectioner's sugar
- 4 Cups mini marshmallows
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 °F. Grease a 13 by 9 inch baking pan. Melt 4 oz (4 squares) unsweetened chocolate and 2 sticks butter in a 2-quart bowl in the microwave on high for 3 minutes. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted. Add the eggs, 2 cups sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and mix well with a spatula. Add the flour and stir to combine. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 25 minutes. While the brownies are baking, make the frosting. Melt 4 oz (4 squares) unsweetened chocolate and 2 sticks softened butter in a medium bowl in the microwave on high for 3 minutes. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted. Add 1/2 cup egg substitute, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 (1 lb) box sifted confectioner’s sugar and stir with a spoon until smooth. Stir in the marshmallows; they will soften but not melt completely. Spread the frosting over the warm brownies. The frosting will set up when the brownies are completely cooled. When cool, cut into 1 1/2-inch squares and store in the refrigerator in a plastic container with a snap-on lid.
