Who doesn’t love brownies? They are fudge-like and delicious and an amazing chocolate treat. They are also really easy to make. They are even easier than cookies because you just pour the batter in the pan and bake, there are no batches or dough rolling to do.
If you are going to be making brownies, you have two choices on how to go about it. You can either make them from scratch, or you can use a boxed brownie mix. It is up to you which to use. It really depends on your own preferences which is better.
First, you need a recipe. If you’re making boxed brownies, this step is easy. Just use the recipe on the back of the box. If you are making brownies from scratch, look through your cookbooks for a recipe or search online for a recipe that has great reviews. Maybe a family member has a great recipe you can use.
Next, read through the recipe. Are there any ingredients you don’t have? Make a list and double check the ingredients to make sure you’re getting everything you need. Look for the ingredients in your kitchen so that you don’t miss anything. Then, go to the supermarket and pick up anything you need.
When you have everything you need, start following the instructions. Start by preparing a baking pan. Grease it but first line it with parchment paper or foil if you have anything. This will make it really easy to come out of the pan. It will also help a lot with cleanup.
Don’t slack in the instructions. Follow them all carefully. If you are using a box brownie mix, this will be as easy as throwing in a couple of eggs, oil, and water and mixing. Other recipes will have more requirements. Do what the recipe says or else they may not come out right.
When the batter is ready, you can add just about anything you like that you know will go well. This is when to add nuts or chocolate chips or something like that. You don’t have to do this, but it can be done to just about any brownie recipe.
Pour the batter into the pan, and put the pan into a preheated oven. Bake according to the instructions and then remove the pan. Let it cool completely, then lift out the brownies with the sides of the parchment paper or foil. Cut them into pieces and enjoy!
