PASSOVER (PESACH) BROWNIES



Passover (Pesach) Brownies image

I experimented for years to come up with a brownie made with matzo ... this is the best!

Provided by Sharone Rosen

Categories     Desserts     Cookies     Brownie Recipes     Chocolate Brownie Recipes

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 eggs
2 ½ cups white sugar
1 ¼ cups vegetable oil
1 ¼ cups matzo cake meal
1 ½ cups unsweetened cocoa powder
1 ¼ cups chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Beat eggs and sugar. Add oil. Mix in cake meal and cocoa. Add nuts (or use the nuts as a topping).
  • Bake in a greased 9 x 13 inch pan at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 35 minutes. The secret to moist brownies, Pesach or otherwise, is to underbake them. Check them at 30 minutes. I also put nuts on top rather than in the brownies for two reasons: They make the top look good without having to frost them and, for those who don 't or can't eat nuts, they are easily removed without having to search for them.

PASSOVER BROWNIES



Passover Brownies image

Need a chocolate fix during the holidays? Though I'm not Jewish, this recipe looked intriguing to me so I'm saving it as a gift the next time I'm invited to a Seder. (Yes, in my kitchen it would not be Kosher, but my friends are not that religious.) The combination of fruits --raisins, bananas and applesauce -- should give these a very moist brownie like texture.

PASSOVER CHOCOLATE BROWNIES - PAREVE



Passover Chocolate Brownies - pareve image

This was adapted, doubled and adjusted from the Breuer's Teacher's Seminary cookbook. It won't win secular or year-round gourmet awards, but it makes yummy, simple and light Passover brownies that don't have an overly potato-starchy aftertaste. Our Passover utensils are limited: this uses only the mixer, a liquid measuring cup (also used to check the eggs) and a half-cup-sized dry measuring cup. The brownies come out about 1.25 inches high. All the best, CLKL

Tips:

  • Prepare your ingredients ahead of time:Mise en place, or preparing your ingredients in advance, is key to successful baking. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you have everything you need before you start baking.
  • Use high-quality chocolate:The quality of your chocolate will greatly impact the taste of your brownies. Use a high-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate for the best results.
  • Do not overmix the batter:Overmixing the batter will result in tough, dense brownies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached:Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly brownies.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them:This will help them to set and prevent them from falling apart.
