HAWAIIAN BROWNIES {CHOCOLATE + MACADAMIA NUTS}



Hawaiian Brownies {Chocolate + Macadamia Nuts} image

Provided by Mel

Categories     Bars/Brownies

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 tablespoons salted butter (cubed)
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate (a heaping 1/2 cup)
3 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup coarsely chopped dry roasted macadamia nuts (see note)
1 cup chopped bittersweet chocolate or chocolate chips
1/2 cup half and half or cream
1/2 cup coarsely chopped macadamia nuts

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9X13-inch baking pan (I've only tested this recipe with a metal pan; you might want to decrease the oven temp to 325 if using glass). Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan or in a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter, sugar, and 4 ounces chocolate. Melt over low heat (or microwave) until smooth, stirring often; don't let the mixture overheat. Let cool for a bit (lukewarm is fine, hot is not).
  • Whisk in the eggs, salt and vanilla.
  • Stir in the flour and macadamia nuts together until just combined.
  • Spread the batter evenly in the pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes until set and a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs (add time as necessary if they take longer to bake).
  • Remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies cool completely.
  • For the fudge topping, combine the 6 ounces chocolate and half and half (or cream) in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until melted, smooth, and glossy.
  • Set aside for the topping to cool completely, stirring often if you want to speed up the process and avoid a skin forming on the surface.
  • When cool but still spreadable, use an offset spatula or knife to spread the topping evenly over the cooled brownies.
  • Sprinkle macadamia nuts on top.
  • Chill until ready to serve.

This is a really inexpensive (under $2!) and easy brownie to make. I had to come up with a last-minute dessert so I took a brownie mix I had in the cupboard and decided to dress it up a bit. This was the result, which was a hit.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your brownies. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies in a preheated oven. This will help them rise evenly.
  • Don't overbake the brownies. Overbaking will make them dry. Check the brownies a few minutes before the baking time is up.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Aloha Brownies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor and chewy texture, they're sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give Aloha Brownies a try. You won't be disappointed!
