Brownie is a flat, usually square or strip dessert from the late 19th century in the United States. Its texture is between cake and cookie. According to the different materials, such as nuts, cream, chocolate chips and so on. Brownies also have different density taste. Sometimes they are served with milk, coffee or ice cream. As for how Brownie invented it, there are three different versions of it. Some say that a chef accidentally added melted chocolate when making cookies; some say that the pastry maker forgot to add flour when making cookies; some say that a wife accidentally found that there was less baking powder when making cakes. So she made a mistake and put the batter directly into the oven. Now we have brownie. But no matter which version. Brownie is an unexpected product. It's also the fun of baking. Infinite creativity. One carelessness. Maybe you can make a unique dessert one day
Step1:Preheat the oven to 180 ° C. Cut the four corners of baking paper / tin paper respectively as shown in the figure and lay them on the baking tray. Choose a deep pan. The size of the baking tray I use here is 21 cm x 31 cm x3.5 Cm. Cut the nuts into small pieces and set aside.
Step2:Put chocolate and butter together and heat them over medium heat until they melt. Remember not to overheat them. Otherwise, chocolate will lose its luster.
Step3:When the chocolate melts 60-70%, it can be taken off the fire. Manually stir the residual heat of the bowl to dissolve the remaining chocolate.
Step4:Put the eggs in a clean container. Pour in sugar and vanilla extract.
Step5:Mix well.
Step6:Sift the flour, cocoa powder and salt and pour them into the egg mixture.
Step7:Mix well.
Step8:Add the slightly cooled liquid chocolate. Stir well.
Step9:Optional steps - add different nuts as you like. Stir well with a spatula. Nuts must be cut into small pieces and then poured into brownie. Otherwise, they will not be easily cut into pieces and scattered after cooling.
Step10:Pour the chocolate batter into the baking tray.
Step11:Use a scraper to clean up the corners and surfaces. Make sure that the entire pan is covered with Brownie paste. Bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Or to Brownie's surface in a dry light color.
Step12:Take it out and let it cool down for at least 30 minutes.
Step13:Cut it into small pieces and eat it. Cocoa and sugar can be sprinkled on top to enhance the taste.
Step14:Delicacy and high quality recipes are for everyone to share. May, I once again opened a WeChat official account, May square cuisine. Welcome to our attention. All recipes are my original and repeated experiments. Please feel free to use them.
Cooking tips:The baking time is flexible. Pay attention to the oven in the next 5 minutes. Don't over bake. Brownie is still in the baking state after being taken out of the oven, so wait patiently for it to cool before eating. Nuts must be cut into small pieces and then poured into brownie. Otherwise, they will not be easily cut into pieces and scattered after cooling. Don't put chocolate too long after it dissolves. Otherwise, it will coagulate easily. If it is condensed, it can be put on the fire again and then heated to melting. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
