Tips for Making Double Chocolate Brownies
The best part about making brownies from scratch is; you may have everything you need in your pantry right now. That's the perfect excuse to bake a batch today.
- It's important to allow these brownies to cool in the pan before attempting to cut them. The reason is, they're so moist they may fall apart, if cut too soon.
- Also, another rule of thumb when baking brownies in general is, to bake them until you see moist crumbs on a toothpick when inserted into the center. This is one time you aren't looking for the toothpick to come back clean. Over-baking brownies will result in them being dry and crumbly.
- Serve these as is, or make brownie sundaes topped with vanilla ice cream, chocolate ganache, fresh whipped cream and the token maraschino cherry on top.
