CANDY BAR CHOCOLATE BROWNIES



Candy Bar Chocolate Brownies image

Rich, decadent, moist and chewy with chunks of candy bars melted in, you couldn't ask a brownie for more. One of the best parts about them is that you can do them in one bowl, so cleanup's a breeze. The one thing you have to remember is to put the candy bars in the fridge before you got to chop them up or you'll get mush instead of chunks.

Time 40m

Yield about 16 brownies

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) butter, melted, plus a little more for greasing the pan
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons water
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
10 mini chocolate-peanut candy bars, crumbled (about 1 1/2 cups), refrigerator cold (recommended - Snickers fun size)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Grease a 9 by 13-inch cake pan (aluminum is fine) with butter. Beat the 1 1/2 sticks butter and the sugar together in a large bowl until blended. Beat in the eggs 1 at a time, then stir in water and vanilla. Sprinkle the salt and baking powder over the mixture, then mix in. Do the same with the cocoa. Finally, stir in the flour until just blended.
  • Put the candy bars in a food processor or blender and pulse on low speed until all the bars have been reduced to a coarse crumble. Fold the crumble into the batter thoroughly. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for about 30 minutes, until the center is set, the edges look a bit crusty, and the top of the brownies start to crack a little. Cool completely before cutting into squares.

Time 40m

Yield 24 bars

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup flaked coconut
1 (6 ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 (6 ounce) package butterscotch chips
1 cup walnuts, chopped

  • Pour sweetened condensed milk over all.
  • Back at 350F for about 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The type of chocolate you use will greatly affect the taste of your brownies. Opt for a good-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate for a rich, fudgy flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough, dense brownies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that the brownies bake evenly.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from crumbling.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature: Brownies can be stored for up to 3 days at room temperature, or for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

Brownies are a classic dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are relatively easy to make, and there are many different recipes to choose from. Whether you prefer fudgy brownies, cakey brownies, or something in between, there is sure to be a brownie recipe that you will love.
