Re: Decadent Birthing Brownies
Um, worse brownies ever. I don't know what's wrong with them. Maybe the organic sugar? It's not super fine like bakers sugar. I didn't have bittersweet chocolate, so I used trader joe's 72% dark chocolate. After tasting the batter, I added 2 oz of semi sweet bakers chocolate I had on hand and it still didn't taste very chocolatey. I looked online and bittersweet/semi-sweet are supposed to be interchangable. I baked it in a smaller pan and it rose high, crisping the top, but leaving the inside mushy. It caved when cutting into it. Weird. I'm used to the ghiredelli's mix.
But if they work, I don't care!

Re: Decadent Birthing Brownies
they are pretty dense on the inside... it's all that butter.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who thought they were awful. I had to force myself to finish the pan (who ever thought they'd have to say that about brownies!?! )... and then it was all for naught anyway. Here's to hoping they work for you! |

Re: Decadent Birthing Brownies
They beat castor oil any day!
I was reading a food blog last week and came across the recipe for these brownies. Only they were just "brownies", specifically brownies to add to homemade ice cream. I wanted to comment, but resisted the urge.

Re: Decadent Birthing Brownies
I don't know, but my stats are two for two! They aren't the best brownies, but I'd rather eat them than take castor oil.
