3x6=18x6=108-18=90 Brownies in two days

My initial approach to making brownies, having never made them before, was to review the recipe and cut the sugar and butter drastically. It was soon very apparent had made an ugly mistake because brownies are naught but sugar, butter and flour with a little chocolate mixed in. In my time crunch to make a decent batch of homemade brownies I did not take pictures, which is just as well because after trying one I decided to soak them in water and throw them away unceremoniously. Soaking bad food before disposing is an effective way of preventing any man or beast from suffering the same fate that brought you into such a perspective. So that's the minus 18. After the first batch I decided not to mess much with the recipe and things began turning out much better, although I always used whole wheat flour because I don't like to compromise with wheat. I do enjoy utilizing healthy alternatives and avoiding chemicals or modified substances. Here you can see my 'No MSG' sign announcing proudly my unwillingness to compromise when it comes to brownies. This is how I arranged them for work, where I engaged everyone with a challenge to eat too many chocolate brownies in the space of a few hours and report back their favorite. (In wise retrospect, I should have made the pieces smaller) I don't remember what exactly I did to each batch because I did not document it and I made them all back to back but here is a small summary of what I can recall.


FLTR:




A. Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate bars 4oz. --very sweet







B. 3/4 cup Hersey's Coco, really tiny bit of pumpkin from a can --my favorite







C. 4oz. Unsweetened baking chocolate --mild, pleasant flavor








D. 3/4 cup Hersey's Coco no pumkin, deep dish --great texture, good taste





* 1 cup of Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips was added to each

Brownies are very easy to make, prep time is 10 minutes and cook time is only 30 minutes so there's no excuse not to make your own if you're in the mood. I will will be revisiting my quest to find the ultimate brownie soon!
