CANDY BAR BROWNIES



Candy Bar Brownies image

Isn't it funny how recipes go around in cycles? I remember folks adding candy bars to brownies back in the 1980's, then Christy Jordan (of Southern Plate) wrote about the same thing, except using Symphony Bars. Were Symphony Bars even around back then? Anyway, I decided to experiment with some of the candy bars out there now. ...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 box of brownie mix, 13 x 9 family size
1/2 c cooking oil, as directed on box
1/4 c water, as directed on box
2 eggs, as directed on box
3 large candy bars** (see direction #8 below.)
some walnuts, optional (i used them, but i won't next time)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (or as directed on the brownie mix box). Mist a 13 x 9"** pan with cooking spray.
  • 2. Mix brownie batter using the directions on the box.
  • 3. Pour 1/2 of the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly.
  • 4. Unwrap the large candy bars and place on top of the brownie batter.
  • 5. Spread the remaining batter over the candy bars, covering them completely.
  • 6. Bake 25-30 minutes, checking the edges for doneness since the toothpick method won't work in the melted chocolate. Remove from the oven & cool on a cooling rack.
  • 7. Cut & serve when the brownies cool. Watch out for the stampede! =^..^=
  • 8. **Christy Jordan recommended using an 8 x 8" pan, which would make a thicker brownie. The baking time would also need adjusted to around 45 minutes. You'd also only need 2 large candy bars.

SYMPHONY CANDY BAR BROWNIES



Symphony Candy Bar Brownies image

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 box of brownie mix for 9x13" pan (or your own homemade brownie recipe)
Ingredients called for on brownie mix
3 large (4.25 oz each) Symphony candy bars with almonds and toffee chips

Steps:

  • Mix the brownies according to box directions. Spray a 9x13" pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Pour 1/2 the brownie mix into the pan (it won't seem like very much!).
  • Unwrap the 3 candy bars and place side by side on top of the batter in the pan. Don?t break or chop up the candy bars ? they will be whole.
  • Pour the remainder of the brownie mix over the top.
  • Bake according to directions on the brownie box. Let cool, cut, and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a quality chocolate bar: The type of chocolate you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your brownies. Use a high-quality chocolate bar with a cocoa content of at least 60%.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough, dry brownies. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies at the right temperature: The ideal baking temperature for brownies is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake them at a higher temperature, they will be dry and crumbly. If you bake them at a lower temperature, they will be gooey and undercooked.
  • Test the brownies for doneness: The best way to test brownies for doneness is to insert a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, the brownies are done.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help prevent them from falling apart.

Candy bar brownies are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of brownies that are sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give candy bar brownies a try.
