    i just want to thank you for your tips and tricks for the brownies...my latest batch with a duncan hines box mix turned out pretty good with the increased egg count (2 instead of 1) and a quarter cup of butter with the quarter cup of oil...i used what i had which was some evaporated milk along with the amount of water the box called for and a partial bag of pecan pieces...i also used a muffin tin and made 10 of my personal best brownie muffins...i'm very pleased with the results thanks to you...

    So yummy looking this cold winter morning! Have to laugh a little, Nicole...you know that there is no coffee in coffee creamer! 🤣. I will say though, swapping black coffee for water in brownies does add an ultra rich flavor, so you are on the right track! If people do want to use a box mix, Ghirardelli is the best you can buy and those add ins you suggested are terrific! Thanks for another great video!! 😘

      With cake or brownies, anything you bake that is chocolate. Flour the pan or baking dish but instead of flour, use unsweetened chocolate cocoa. Because the brownies are sooooo sweet, the cocoa gives a fantastic flavor and doesn't taste bitter at all. You can always add other flavors like cinnamon or just dust with plain sugar. Good idea on the coffee Creamer. I put pecans in mine.

      @@allrecipes Well, shut my mouth and set me south!! I am so sorry Nicole, I even looked for that creamer and read all of the ingredients to make sure they weren’t putting coffee in it! The ingredients list “natural flavor” so in addition to a caramel flavor, maybe they add a coffee flavor, too! You know we all love you and we’re just joking with you. You are one of the best in the kitchen on TH-cam and we wouldn’t want to hurt your feelings in any way. Thanks for setting us straight! 😘

    I usually add chocolate chips or chunks and walnuts. Another good add in are the giant candy bars (Hershey, Symphony, or Reese) baked between even layers of brownie batter. Those were a bake sale/potluck favorite. A little goes a long way with those too.

    I definitelly love my brownies from the center of the pan and baked so they have a touch of raw batter. I know they cut better when cooled, but is it any harm to refrigerate before cutting? That seems to give the best cut.

    When making a cake with a cake box I use 3 eggs instead of two, and substitute melted butter instead of oil.I have used sour cream, and chocolate pieces brings up the flavor. For brownies I use parchment paper too helps the brownies stay moist.

  • @haroldharris9832

    I use coconut oil and the chocolate coffee creamer. That oil adds extra flavors and the chocolate coffee creamer makes it sweeter and more chocolaty.

    When baking with chocolate I always add a pinch of nutmeg and a pack of hot chocolate mix. (With marshmallows in the mix are preferred.) If course adding some Rum always gets you the "Perfect bite."

    Looks good but I'm confused about the coffee statement. You added coffee creamer, not actual coffee. But then you stated that the coffee gave it another level of flavor complexity. Was your coffee creamer a blend of cream and coffee already mixed together?

    • @mebyrne
      @mebyrne 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    My boyfriend takes the center piece every time of almost everything I bake but especially brownies ! If I haven't cut them yet, I will come back to them with a perfect square missing in the center and only the center cut 😅 drives me crazy sometimes lol. I like to top my box brownies with a chocolate ganache. Recently I only had buttermilk and made the ganache with that, it turned out really good!

    I never leave a box mix of any kind alone! I always add stuff or change up the mix instructions! When I make brownies, my go to additive is chopped pecans. Sometimes I even cut up caramels and drop on top along with extra pecans, like making Turtle brownies. Yum! Whenever I make chocolate cake I most always add leftover brewed coffee, room temperature, instead of water the mix calls for. Makes the chocolate taste richer. I never thought about adding chopped Snickers though, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s in the next batch of brownies I make!

    • @allrecipes
      @allrecipes  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you line your pan with parchment and let the sides hang over, you could lift them all out at once and it makes for prettier/easier cutting when they are completely cool. The other thing I find helpful is a small brownie spatula. It's easier to get that corner piece out and then the rest come out easy. - Nicole

    I was raised by a pastry chef father, who actually went to school to be a pastry chef. Plus, his parents owned a bakery in Chicago in the 1940's and 1950's. My mother also was a caterer who did wedding and special occasion cakes. They taught me to never use water, always milk. Never use oil, butter is better, as Paula Deen would say.
