Easy Beer Brownies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 9-by-13-inch baking pan.
• Sift together the flour and cocoa powder in a medium bowl. Add the salt and stir together.
• Meanwhile, add 2 inches of water to a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Place the chopped chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl and set it over the saucepan (do not let the bowl touch the water). Stir occasionally until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove the bowl from the saucepan and set aside.
• Melt the 1 stick butter in a small saucepan or skillet over medium heat and continue to cook until it just turns golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Immediately pour the brown butter into the bowl of chocolate, scraping in the brown bits (to avoid overcooking the butter). Add the beer and stir together.
• Combine the eggs with both sugars in a large bowl. Beat together with an electric mixer on high speed until thick and shiny, about 2 minutes. Continue beating on low speed while adding the flour mixture and wet ingredients in alternating batches. Beat in the vanilla. Do not over mix. Fold in the chocolate chips.
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake until matte all over and a toothpick inserted in the center looks fudgy, but not wet, 40 to 45 minutes.
• Let the brownies cool in the pan before cutting and serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch pan.
• Combine the melted butter, sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla, eggs, flour, baking powder, and salt. Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Decorate with walnut halves, if desired.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with crumbs, not wet. Cool on wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x11 inch baking dish.
• In a large bowl, mix the butter and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. Mix in the flour, salt and cocoa powder just until moistened. Stir in the walnuts, if using. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
• Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is dry and the edges begin to pull away from the sides of the pan. Cool before cutting into squares.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Line a 13x9x2 baking pan with aluminum foil, letting foil extend 2 inches beyond each short side of pan.
• In large bowl, whisk together stout and cocoa powder until blended and smooth. Whisk in sugar, butter, vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time. Blend well.
• Add flour and salt; whisk until batter is smooth. Stir in chocolate chips. Spread mixture in prepared pan, leveling surface with a spatula. Bake 42 to 45 minutes in preheated oven, until top is shiny and dry, and a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached. Remove from oven and let cool completely in pan on rack.
• Lift out brownie from pan by foil ends; transter to cutting board. Cut lengthwise into four strips and crosswise into 8 pieces, making 32 brownies.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Grease bottom of 8- or 9-inch square pan with shortening or cooking spray. In medium bowl, stir all ingredients except frosting until well blended. Spread in pan.
• Bake 8-inch pan 35 to 38 minutes, 9-inch pan 28 to 31 minutes, or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out almost clean. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Spread frosting evenly over brownies. Cut into 4 rows by 4 rows.

Steps:

• 1. Combine brownie mix with about 1/4 cup of beer (I used Rogue Chocolate Stout). If mixture seems too thick, add a little more beer.
• 2. Spoon about 1 TBSP of mixture into mini brownie pans (included in box). Follow directions for baking time.
• 3. After brownies have cooled a bit, combine cinnamon and powdered sugar into a bowl. Add beer until mixture can be easily drizzled. Top cooled brownies with glaze. Refrigerate 30 minutes to let glaze set.
• 4. Makes 12 brownies.
