The Sizzling Brownie is one that I remember from my childhood. In England there are a lot of Indian restaurants and this was always on the menu. I would love to go, just as much as I love Indian food, these gooey brownies are a delight.

I came up with the Snickers Brownie as an accident actually. I wanted to create the perfect brownie recipe and was inspired by my favorite candy bar. I'll choose a Snickers Bar every single time someone asks what I want. It's my favorite part of my kids' Halloween candy - lol.

Banana pudding just happens to be my new favorite 'southern dessert' - since moving here I realize that it's a classic and it's not hard to see why. Creating a brownie out of this classic dessert was a no-brainer for me and has become my best brownie recipe.

Brownie FAQ's

What makes brownies more fudgy?

The eggs in a brownie recipe will create that cakey texture. The more eggs the fudgier they will be. Just adding extra egg yolks does the trick too.
The molasses in the brown sugar helps too.

What can substitute butter in a brownies recipe?

You could use apple sauce instead. This is a great alternative to butter.
You could also try avocado, mashed banana, Greek yoghurt or pumpkin puree.

What is the best flour to use for brownies?

All purpose is the best flour to use, due to the gluten content. Using cake flour or bread flour differs in the gluten content and will mess with your brownies' texture.

How to store leftovers

The best part about brownies is that they don't need to be refrigerated. Although sometimes, I guess, there could be a special ingredient - however, 9 times out of 10 brownies are going to be able to be stored at room temperature. Use an airtight container and they'll keep fresh for up to one week.

Like my Hot Chocolate Brownie Bites, if the brownies have cream on them or something dairy like that that needs to be refrigerated just store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Or you could also just add the cream upon serving.

Brownies do freeze well. Store in a freezer safe container for up to 6 months.
