I prefer fudgey brownies; they're just more delicious. Granted I'm also a self-confessed uncooked batter-eater so maybe that has something to do with it. I just feel if I wanted cake-like brownies, I'd just make a cake because, hey, frosting. Now for the recipes... and this is where I'm failing because I actually like brownie mixes. For my money, Ghirardelli probably has the best brownies in the world. But for those purests out there, I've got a great one bowl brownie recipe that will knock your socks off.
One Bowl Brownies
3/4 cup butter
4 oz unsweetened chocolate
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
a splash (about a tbsp or so) strong coffee
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup to 1 cup chopped walnuts (or omit them entirely)
Melt the butter and chocolate together. Add the sugars and mix well. Add the eggs, one at a time, then the vanilla and the coffee. Add the flour and salt and mix just until combined. Finally, stir in the walnuts. Pour into a greased 13x9 inch pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes (oven temperatures can vary so make sure not to over-bake). In the end you get these rich, wonderful heavenly things to keep you warm on a cold, lonely Valentine's Day
this is why I'll never be a food photographer... tune in next time for Curry!
