Rosies Bakery Brownies Chocolate Orgasms Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Have rack in bottom third of oven.
• Generously butter a springform pan.
• Beat butter with sugar for about 4-5 minutes with electric mixer.
• Add eggs, alternately with flour, baking powder, chocolate and liquor and continue to beat until all ingredients are incorporated.
• Pour into springform pan.
• Bake 10 minutes, turn off heat, and leave in turned-off oven another 15 minutes.
• Remove and let stand about 10-15 minutes before serving.
• I cut into this with a serrated spatula.
• It will be cakey-crusty outside and molten, rich chocolatey goo in the middle.
• I serve with very lightly whipped cream (unsweetened or just barely sweetened) or a scoop of softened vanilla ice cream on the side.
• I have often made this several hours ahead of baking (which should be done close to eating time) and popped it in the fridge and then popped it into the preheated oven, increasing baking time by 5 minutes- it worked great!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Butter an 8-inch square pan.
• In double boiler, melt the chocolate with the butter over barely simmering water.
• Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
• In a bowl, using electric mixer, beat together the chocolate mixture and sugar for 1 to 2 minutes until completely combined.
• Add the vanilla and the lightly beaten eggs and mix just until combined.
• Add the flour and beat just until totally blended and has a shiny, velvety look, 1 minute or less.
• Spread batter evenly into prepared pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until a very thin crust forms on the top and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean or with a moist crumb.
• Do not over bake.
• Cool in the pan on a rack until it reaches room temperature.
• When it is cool, cover with plastic wrap and set aside overnight.
• To make frosting: In blender combine the melted chocolate, sugar and evaporated milk.
• Process for 3 to 5 minutes until mixture is firm and shiny (the sound of the blender will change when the mixture has firmed up).
• Frost the brownies with a thin layer of the icing.
• To serve, cut into squares and top each with a pecan half, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F; Lightly grease and 8-inch square pan with butter or vegetable oil.
• Melt the 3 1/2 ounces of chocolate and 12 T butter in the top of a double boiler placed over simmering water; Cool the mixture for 5 minutes; Place 1 1/2 cups sugar in a medium-sized mixing bowl and pour in the chocolate mixture; Using an electric mixer on medium speed, mix until blended, about 25 seconds; Scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula.
• Add the vanilla; With the mixer on medium-low speed, add the eggs one at a time, blending after each addition until the yolk is broken and dispersed, about 10 seconds; Scrape the bowl after the last egg and blend until velvety, about 15 more seconds.
• Add the flour on low speed and mix for 20 seconds; finish the mixing by hand, being certain to mix in any flour at the bottom of the bowl; Stir in 1/2 cup of the nuts.
• Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and sprinkle the remaining 2 T of nuts over the top.
• Bake the brownies on the center oven rack until a thin crust forms on top and a tester inserted in the center comes out with a moist crumb, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and place it on a rack to cool for 1 hour before cutting the brownies; Serve the next day (it takes a day for the flavor to set) and don't forget the tall glass of milk.
• For the Chocolate Orgasms, do not cut the brownies, but allow them to cool completely.
• The prepare the frosting, melt the 1 1/2 ounces of chocolate in the top of a double boiler placed over simmering water.
• Pour the evaporated milk into an electric blender and add the sugar and the melted chocolate; Blend the frosting on medium-low speed until it thickens, about 50 seconds (the sound of the machine will change when this process occurs).
• Using a frosting spatula, spread the frosting evenly over the surface of the cooled brownies and allow them to sit for 1 hour before cutting.
