Treadmill Worthy Brownies Recipes

Steps:

• The first 3 ingredients cook over a stove on medium heat, till margarine melts.
• Remove from heat, add the eggs and vanilla.
• Then add the remaining ingredients.
• Stir in the walnuts.
• Put in a greased 8 inch squared pan, bake at 350 for 25 minutes.
• I make a double batch.
• Cocoa Glaze: Combine icing sugar, and cocoa powder.
• Beat in margarine, add 1-2 tbsps of boiling water to make a smooth glaze.

Steps:

• Grease a 9x13-inch (23x33-cm) dark metal pan with softened butter, then line with parchment paper, leaving overhang on all sides. Grease the parchment with softened butter.
• Combine the chopped chocolate, ¼ cup (30 g) of cocoa powder, and espresso powder in a heatproof liquid measuring cup or medium bowl and set aside.
• Add the butter to a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until the butter just comes to a vigorous simmer, about 5 minutes, swirling the pan occasionally. Immediately pour the hot butter over the chocolate mixture and let sit for 2 minutes. Whisk until the chocolate is completely smooth and melted, then set aside.
• Combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, salt, and eggs in a large bowl. Beat with an electric hand mixer on high speed until light and fluffy, about 10 minutes. It will be similar to the texture of very thick pancake batter.
• With the mixer on, pour in the slightly cooled chocolate and butter mixture and blend until smooth.
• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350°F (180°C).
• Sift in the flour and remaining cocoa powder and use a rubber spatula to gently fold until just combined.
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake until lightly puffed on top, about 20 minutes.
• Remove the baking pan from the oven using oven mitts or kitchen towels, then lightly drop the pan on a flat surface 1-2 times until the brownies deflate slightly. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
• Return the pan to the oven and bake until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the brownies comes out fudgy but the edges look cooked through, about 20 minutes more. The center of the brownies will seem under-baked, but the brownies will continue to set as they cool.
• Set the brownies on a cooling rack and cool completely in the pan.
• Use the parchment paper to lift the cooled brownies out of the pan. Cut into 24 bars and serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line one 9x9-inch baking pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the sugar until dissolved. Remove mixture from heat. Gradually pour the melted butter into the beaten eggs, whisking constantly, until mixture is fully incorporated. Stir in the vanilla.
• Sift the flour, cocoa and salt together. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until combined. Stir in the walnuts. Spread the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in preheated oven until brownies are set (a toothpick inserted in the center should have small crumbs clinging to it, rather than wet batter), 45 to 50 minutes. Do not overbake!

Steps:

• Combine all brownie ingredients. Stir until smooth. Batter will be stiff.
• Spread dough into a greased 9x13 pan.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
• Buttercream Frosting: In a large bowl with a mixer on low speed combine powdered sugar, cocoa, butter, milk, and vanilla. Beat at medium speed 1-2 minutes until creamy. For Fudge Frosting: Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a rolling boil. Stir constantly and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Beat until mixture just starts to thicken.
• Spread buttercream frosting over brownies or pour fudge frosting over brownies.

Steps:

• Beat together sugar, eggs, and oil.
• Sift flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa together.
• Add to sugar-egg mixture.
• Add vanilla and nuts (if desired).
• Pour into two cake pans (8x8x2) lined with foil.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes.
• Cut when cool and dust with powdered sugar.
