Sqwertz's Climactic Brownies

A Super Fudgy Browned Butter and Brown Sugar Brownie.

You probably have everything you need to make these RIGHT NOW! Why
resist?

3 sticks (12 ounces) Salted butter [or unsalted and add 1 ts of
table salt to batter]
8 ounces Milk Chocolate Morsels
13 ounces White Sugar
5 ounces Light Brown Sugar
6 large Eggs (cold)
1.5 TB Vanilla
4.5 ounces All-Purpose Flour
4 ounces Cocoa Powder

Heat oven to 350F

Make browned butter: In a 2qt or larger saucepan melt and cook
butter over medium heat until it starts to foam and the
bubbling/sputtering stops. Stir a few times, especially after solids
sink to bottom, to make sure they don't burn. Butter should be
medium golden yellow. Immediately remove from burner. Stir in
chocolate chips until incorporated. Allow to rest 10 minutes while
you...

Pan: Line a 9 x 12 x 2" metal - not glass or ceramic - baking dish
with [nonstick] foil as flat and neatly as possible. Fold edges
over outside to use to lift the brownies out of the pan after
cooling.

Batter: In small bowl, whisk together cocoa powder and flour. In
large bowl mix eggs, sugars, vanilla, [salt if using unsalted
butter], and vanilla. Beat with electric hand mixer on medium for 2
minutes. Incorporate the butter-chocolate mixture on low speed. Add
in the flour-cocoa mixture and mix until roughly incorporated.
Finish the mixing with your hand whisk or rubber spatula until fully
incorporated, making sure to scrape bottom of bowl.

[Tasting: Lick the beaters/spatula - AFTER detaching beaters from
unit first!]

Bake: Pour batter into your foil-lined metal baking dish and place
on middle rack in pre-heated oven. Clean up the mess you made while
the brownies bake for 35 minutes or until thermometer reads 210F in
middle of brownie (not the bottom of the pan) no comes out barely
clean, but no longer (check at 30 minutes). Allow to cool for at
least an hour.

And I can't visualize myself taking pictures of myself making
anything unless it starts with raw meat!

You'll just have to make them for yourself. Take one for the team!

If you cut them into 12 [big] servings, it's ONLY 2 pats of butter,
1 TB of coaoa, and half an egg per serving.

I started with one "serving" and downgraded to half a serving:

That requires ice cream. And I think freezing half of the pan so that
one can recover from the coma.
I'll have to think about making it next week. I have no ice cream and
I'm not ordering stuff from Costco until then.

Ice cream? I have a big container of frozen generic cool whip. And
I need a midnight snack.....

LOL. Only YOU can get away with saying that here, Steve,
without much critisizm. Everyone is afraid to take you on.

The rare times I want whipped cream I usually use the same
generic cool whip science project too. It works well for
me and doesn't dissolve so quickly. The ingredient list
doesn't scare me and makes it taste good.

I do have vanilla ice cream on my grocery list for tomorrow.

If the weird, metallic taste and persistent film in the mouth don't
bother him, it's fine with me.

Sounds (and looks good). I've got everything here except
the chocolate and cocoa powder. I do love the fudge like
brownies but never made my own.

In the past just a Duncan Hines brownie mix.

I usually eat it just like ice cream from the freezer. It has
1/14th the fat and calories of ice cream per ounce.

I've been researching and making a few (too many) batches of
brownies this month truing to replicate a local product known as
"Miles of Chocalate". And one thing that came up consistently in ALL
the brownie recipe reviews, that everybody swore by, was this:

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ghirardelli-Chocolate-Triple-Fudge-Premium-Brownie-Mix-19-oz-Box/21119911

So Gary - your mission, should you choose not to accept it I'll kick
your ass, is to make those and report back.

I was eating Halo Top "ice cream" for a while. I decided it was too sweet
and gave up on it. Cool Whip is also too sweet for me.

If I want something cold (e.g., after yard work, for example), I prefer
an Outshine fruit bar. Lime, lemon, raspberry, strawberry.

I guess there's a reason why they don't call it whipped cream. Whipped

Not allowed my my house. I have on occasion bought the canned Reddi
Whip though. Twice in the last week I made the real deal.
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tsp sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Use the whisk attachment on the KA mixer and in a few minutes you have
great cream. makes 3 - 4 servings and holds a couple of days.

Not me. Thanks to the development of non-dairy products, black folks and Asian folks can enjoy white fluffy material on their pie without the toxic effects of that poison, lactose - and the rest is history. As an added bonus, the stuff is awesome when lit.

Sure, it's fine for people with damaged DNA. But for those of us who
can tolerate lactose, there's no need to resort to inferior substitutes.

You also can use Doritos as fire starters.

My DNA is perfectly fine. The reality is that people that can cross drink the fluids intended for another species with no ill effects are "mutants."


"But around 8,000 years ago in what's now Turkey — just when humans were starting to milk newly domesticated cows, goats and sheep — mutations near the gene that produces the lactase enzyme started becoming more frequent. And around the same time, adult lactose tolerance developed. The mutation responsible for that may be between 2,000 and 20,000 years old; estimates vary."

My wife and I eat the same food. I love walnuts in fudge and brownies. My
wife hates walnuts. Therefore, we don’t eat fudge or brownies. There’s a
syllogism in there somewhere.
