Provided by á-46561

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups Gold medal UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour (bleached flour toughens baked goods)
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup white sugar
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup banana, mashed with a fork (about one medium-large banana)
10 ounces Hershey's semi-sweet chocolate baking melts (or 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips)
1/4 cup Nestle's chocolate chips for the top

Steps:

  • Mix butter, eggs, sugars, salt and vanilla with an electric mixer until well mixed. Add flour, mashed banana and baking melts (or chocolate chips). Stir with a wooden spoon to combine. Spray a 9x13" glass baking dish with cooking spray. Spread brownie mixture into prepared pan. Smooth the top with a knife or rubber spatula. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top. Bake at 350°F for 30-40 minutes just until lightly golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely before cutting into bars.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas for the best flavor and texture.
  • Be sure to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to create a chewy brownie.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough brownie.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts gently. Overmixing can cause them to lose their shape and color.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overbaking will result in a dry brownie.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help to prevent them from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Chunky Monkey Brownies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor, gooey texture, and abundance of chocolate chips and walnuts, these brownies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
