MOM'S BEST BROWNIES



Mom's Best Brownies image

My mom has made a variation of these brownies as long as I can remember. She doesn't know where she got the recipe from. I substituted whole wheat flour and honestly no one can tell it isn't made with white flour! You can substitute plain applesauce for part of the oil, but I like to use 1 c oil (as my mom does) with no applesauce - faster to measure, and it is a dessert after all! I hope you enjoy!

Time 35m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup cocoa
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup unrefined coconut oil or 1 cup butter, melted
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
chopped nuts (optional)
peanut butter (optional)
chocolate chips (optional)
flavored chips (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease and 'flour' 9x13" pan, using cocoa powder instead of flour. (This will eliminate any white spots on bottom of brownies).
  • In a large bowl, stir together cocoa, flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
  • Add oil, eggs, vanilla, and any optional ingredients. Mix well, stopping as soon as all ingredients are incorporated - excessive mixing will cause a cake-like texture.
  • Pour into prepared 9x13" pan.
  • Bake at 350 for 27-30 minutes. Test with toothpick, the brownies are done when no batter clings to it. Remove slightly earlier if you like a gooey, eat with a fork brownie.

MOM'S BEST FRIEND BROWNIES

We know that some kids would be happy to eat an all-sweets lunch. With these you won't have to stress quite so much. They're lower in fat and sugar than most other brownies, and baking them in mini-muffin tins keeps the portion size just right.

Time 1h50m

Yield 16 (2-inch) square brownies or 36 1-inch brownie bites.

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons canola or other neutral tasting oil
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
2 large eggs, cold
1/4 cup cocoa powder
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Position rack in the lower third of the oven and heat oven to 325 degrees F. Use an 8 by 8-inch silicone baking pan or line a similar sized metal or glass baking dish with foil or parchment paper so it hangs over the edges by about 1 inch. For mini brownie bites, line mini muffin tins with 36 mini muffin liners. Spray the prepared pan.
  • Put the butter, oil and chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat at 75 percent power for 2 minutes. Stir, and microwave again until completely melted, about 2 minutes more. (Alternatively put the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with 1 inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl over, not touching, the water, and stir occasionally until melted and smooth.)
  • Stir the brown and white sugars, vanilla and salt into the chocolate mixture with a wooden spoon. Add the eggs and beat vigorously until fully incorporated and the batter is thick and glossy. Add the cocoa, flour and baking soda and stir just until it disappears.
  • Pour the batter into the pan and bake until the top is crispy and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out with a few crumbs, about 30 minutes (40 minutes if not using silicone) for pan brownies, and 14 to 15 minutes for mini brownie bites.
  • Cool the brownies in the pan on the counter. Lift brownies out of the pan by the foil, if needed. Peel off the foil and cut into squares, sticks or shapes using a cookie cutter. Serve. Store extra brownies in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

The credit goes to my mom for these brownies. She has tons of people who request these little devils often. My parents live on a golf course, and even the Pro's from there call and ask for a batch now and then. It is a fabulous recipe, and one that I LOVE! Thanks mom!

Oh, these brownies brought back childhood memories. They reminded me of my grandmother's brownies. The buttermilk helps make these super moist. And that icing? Tops them off perfectly. So chocolaty, so moist and so good!

ABSOLUTELY BEST BROWNIES

This are the easiest and most delicious brownies that I have ever eaten. They are so moist and super quick and easy to make. For best results, use a Dutch processed cocoa. For less cake-like brownies, use all-purpose flour instead of self rising.
