Edible Brownie Batter Recipe #1: Classic Chocolate
This recipe captures the essence of classic brownie batter, ensuring a safe and satisfying experience.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup chocolate chips (optional, but highly recommended!)
Instructions:
- Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a small baking dish (or several smaller ones for individual servings). This step is crucial even though we're not baking the batter.
- Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Make sure there are no lumps.
- Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the milk, oil, and vanilla extract.
- Combine: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Don't overmix! A few lumps are okay.
- Chocolate Chips: Stir in the chocolate chips (if using).
- Chill (Optional): For an even thicker, more intensely flavored batter, chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This step enhances the overall experience.
- Serve & Enjoy: Spoon the batter into bowls or small glasses and enjoy immediately!
Edible Brownie Batter Recipe #2: Peanut Butter Brownie Batter
This variation adds a delightful peanut butter twist to the classic brownie batter.
Ingredients:
- All ingredients from Classic Chocolate Recipe, above
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
Instructions:
Follow steps 1-5 from the Classic Chocolate recipe. In step 6, add the peanut butter to the batter and mix until well combined. Then proceed to step 7.
Tips for the Best Edible Brownie Batter:
- Use high-quality cocoa powder: This significantly impacts the flavor.
- Don't overmix: Overmixing develops the gluten in the flour, leading to a tougher batter.
- Chill for a richer flavor: Chilling intensifies the flavors and thickens the batter.
- Get creative with mix-ins: Add chopped nuts, sprinkles, or even mini marshmallows for extra fun.
