Moms Best Brownies Recipes

Steps:

• Position rack in the lower third of the oven and heat oven to 325 degrees F. Use an 8 by 8-inch silicone baking pan or line a similar sized metal or glass baking dish with foil or parchment paper so it hangs over the edges by about 1 inch. For mini brownie bites, line mini muffin tins with 36 mini muffin liners. Spray the prepared pan.
• Put the butter, oil and chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat at 75 percent power for 2 minutes. Stir, and microwave again until completely melted, about 2 minutes more. (Alternatively put the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with 1 inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl over, not touching, the water, and stir occasionally until melted and smooth.)
• Stir the brown and white sugars, vanilla and salt into the chocolate mixture with a wooden spoon. Add the eggs and beat vigorously until fully incorporated and the batter is thick and glossy. Add the cocoa, flour and baking soda and stir just until it disappears.
• Pour the batter into the pan and bake until the top is crispy and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out with a few crumbs, about 30 minutes (40 minutes if not using silicone) for pan brownies, and 14 to 15 minutes for mini brownie bites.
• Cool the brownies in the pan on the counter. Lift brownies out of the pan by the foil, if needed. Peel off the foil and cut into squares, sticks or shapes using a cookie cutter. Serve. Store extra brownies in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• 1. PREHEAT: Oven to 350 degrees F. PREPARE: Baking pan by greasing and flouring 9x13x2-inch pan (or spraying with 'Baker's Joy' nonstick cooking spray).
• 2. FOLLOW DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY.
• 3. COMBINE: 2 sticks butter, 1 cup boiling water, and 4 Tbsp Cocoa in small sauce pan and bring to a boil.
• 4. MIX: 2 Cups Sugar, 2 Cups flour, and salt together and add hot mixture.
• 5. DISSOLVE: 1/2 Cup buttermilk and 1 tsp. baking soda together, add 2 eggs. MIX: Well. ADD: Nuts. MIX WELL: All above ingredients together. POUR: Into prepared pan and bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes. COOL: Slightly.
• 6. ICING: MEANWHILE: Prepare icing by melting, butter, milk, cocoa together in small sauce pan. ADD: Powdered sugar to thicken. ADD: Vanilla extract. SPREAD: Icing on slightly cooled brownies. SPRINKLE: Nuts over iced brownies. COVER: Until ready to serve. CUT: In squares. SERVE & ENJOY! STORE: Covered leftovers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease and 'flour' 9x13" pan, using cocoa powder instead of flour. (This will eliminate any white spots on bottom of brownies).
• In a large bowl, stir together cocoa, flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
• Add oil, eggs, vanilla, and any optional ingredients. Mix well, stopping as soon as all ingredients are incorporated - excessive mixing will cause a cake-like texture.
• Pour into prepared 9x13" pan.
• Bake at 350 for 27-30 minutes. Test with toothpick, the brownies are done when no batter clings to it. Remove slightly earlier if you like a gooey, eat with a fork brownie.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine chocolate and butter in a small saucepan over very low heat, stirring occasionally. When chocolate is just about melted, remove from heat, and continue to stir until mixture is smooth. Meanwhile, grease an 8-inch-square baking pan. If you like, also line it with waxed or parchment paper and grease that.
• Transfer mixture to a bowl, and stir in sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add flour (and salt and vanilla if you are using them), and stir to incorporate. Stop stirring when no traces of flour remain.
• Pour into pan, and bake 20 to 30 minutes, or until set and barely firm in the middle. Cool on a rack before cutting.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together (mixture will be thick) and then spread in a jelly roll pan that has been greased and floured.
• Bake at 350 for 25-35 minutes, or until brownies are done.
• Frost with favorite frosting.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8-inch square pan.

• Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Do not overcook.
• To Make Frosting: Combine 3 tablespoons softened butter, 3 tablespoons cocoa, honey, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 cup confectioners' sugar. Stir until smooth. Frost brownies while they are still warm.

Steps:

• Soften margarine and blend in sugar and cocoa. We like to mix the brownie batter by hand for best results.
