Sunday, March 11, 2012

Coincidently, when we went to a family dinner last Sunday, we had brownies for dessert! I scarfed it down much faster than I care to admit and yearned for more once it was done. I was too embarrassed to ask for a slice to take home, thus starting my search for the perfect brownie. Everyone has different preferences when it comes to brownies. This brownie is everything I hoped for. Makes 24 brownies INGREDIENTS 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons dark unsweetened cocoa powder 11 ounces dark chocolate (60 to 72%), coarsely chopped 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder (I used instant coffee) 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar 5 eggs, at room temperature 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract DIRECTIONS Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Gradually fold in the flour by using a rubber spatula. S’more Cookie Bars. These were a huge hit!

Keith, Andrew, and Kramer all ate at least two of these the other night. I brought some into work, too, and they quickly disappeared. They seriously tasted just like a s’more, and they should, considering that all of the same ingredients are used, just kicked up a notch! The crust is a graham cracker cookie, topped with marshmallow, a layer of chocolate, and a graham cracker crust to top it all off. These bars are sure to wow everyone that tries them! What you’ll need. Pulse about 8 graham crackers in a blender or food processor to get your graham cracker crumbs. Mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, and graham cracker crumbs. Cream together the butter and sugars, until light and fluffy (at least 3-5 minutes), then beat in the egg and vanilla. Gradually mix the flour mixture into the butter mixture.

Press half of the dough down into the greased and/or lined 8×8 pan (I doubled it and did a 9×13). Lay the chocolate bars over the dough. Enjoy! S’more Cookie Bars. The Baked Brownie. The famed Baked brownie.

Oprah says it’s one of her favorite things. America’s Test Kitchens says its their favorite brownie. I don’t put much stock in Oprah, but America’s Test Kitchens are pretty much like the bible when it comes to all things kitchen. Lookie at my Cookies: Peanut Butter Cup Brownies.

Lookie at my Cookies: Peanut Butter Cup Brownies

I am convinced peanut butter and chocolate were made for each other, like Charlie and Claire on LOST–I’m only on Season 2 right now but someone please tell me they have gotten together. I find that a lot of my baked creations involve these two perfect ingredients because they are two of my favorite foods…they actually might be my MOST favorite foods. Needless to say, the combination of flavors when peanut butter and chocolate meet is heavenly. Salty meets sweet, mmm delicious. My Peanut Butter Cup Brownies were adapted from a recipe found on Bake or Break, I opted to use milk chocolate chips instead of the peanut butter chips for a little different flavor. Peanut Butter Cup Brownies Makes 1 dozen brownies 3/4 cup granulated sugar. Double Chocolate Brownies.

King Arthur Flour – Baking Banter - StumbleUpon. Love brownies.

King Arthur Flour – Baking Banter - StumbleUpon

Love their shiny, flaky top that shatters into micro-thin shards that shower onto your fingers as you eat. Love their dark, gooey center. Their “chocolate nirvana” flavor. Sometimes can’t deal with the bake, wait to cool, cutting into squares messiness and fuss of brownies. Want something I can enjoy within 5 minutes of its exit from the oven. Every time I make these cookies (which, truth be told, is quite often), I think of a former colleague, Ana, who left King Arthur last year in order to be a full-time mom to her 2-year-old twins.

The test kitchen bakers loved Ana.
