I use store bought mix.
There. I said it. The secret is out. In my humble opinion, brownies turn out better when you use store bought mix. I don't think the same of cookies, cakes, or rolls, but brownies...use the box. Just my opinion.
There are ways to personalize your brownies, so that you can at least say they are semi-homemade.
- Toss in some white or milk chocolate chips--or for an even yummier treat, try peanut butter chips!
- Top with frosting and sprinkles
- Swirl in some cream cheese or a little bit of cheesecake batter
- spread the batter out between two 9x13 pans, cook for less time (15ish minutes) and keep an eye on them since they are much thinner
- allow to cool
- cut into little squares
- stuff some Betty Crocker Cream Cheese icing between two pieces for a surprising dessert--Brownie Sandwiches (I cannot begin to tell you how big of a hit these were!)
**Milk Chocolate Brownie Mix**
I had planned to make the new brownies with my sister, but there were a few issues with out plan--starting with a flat tire. She loves brownies almost as much as I do, so of course we were looking forward to making them together, but such is life.
I made them this past week for my husband and I--too bad G isn't a big girl ;-) We demolished them; they were so scrumptious! I would definitely suggest some milk to wash it down! They turned out perfectly, they were best warm out of the oven--the perfect blend of gooey and crumbly. The flavor is different from the Dark Chocolate or Fudge brownie mixes--rich milk chocolate floods your palate--but the quality is the same as the Betty Crocker brand you know and trust.
