A Brownie Question

10 replies

MoosMa · 08/01/2008 16:38

I made some brownies yesterday using Suzywong's recipe and I'm not sure I got it right. When it's cooled should it be gooey inside or does that mean it's not cooked?

I suspect that if it is gooey in the middle then it is not quite cooked. I would do it a little bit longer.

While I'm here, could you point me in the right direction of the recipe? I've been looking for one for a while (well, when I say looking, I mean thinking to myself that I must get around to looking for one )

should be moist but not actually runny

MoosMa · 08/01/2008 18:24

Ok in that case, can I put in back in the oven now that's it been made for a day and part eaten?

No - I'd just eat it then make some more

Brownies should be Gooey, or at least Suzys are. I found that even if I cooked them for an extra 10 mins they were still Gooey. YOu will find teh recipe if you search the phrase "bathroom and scoff the lot" you will find the recipe .

I actually reduce the choc by about a third and add an extra tabblespoon of cocoa powder and they are much less gooey.

Mind you - you might cook the second batch wrong too & have to bake a third lot.....hmm that's the option I'd go for myself

Here's Suzy Wong's recipe and instructions:

A 7 or 8 inch square tin lined with greaseproof paper/baking parchment and the oven set to 180/GM4 moderate oven.

A small saucepan in to which you put

150g butter
150g chocolate, at least half of it should be plain

On a low heat and let it melt together and leave it to cool slightly

Then beat together in a bowl
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
175g caster sugar
Until creamy looking

Then sift in
100g plain flour
1 big tablespoon of drinking chocolate
And a quarter of a teaspoon of salt

Throw in 100g walnuts
And the chocolate and butter and mix well.

Scrape it into the lined tin and bake it for 20 minutes.

Then have a look at it, the top should be pale and cracking slightly, like a dried up muddy puddle, the body of the mix will still be slightly wobbly. If it isn?t like this then leave it in for another 3 minutes.

Leave to cool in the tin and then slice into portions

DO NOT take it in to the bathroom and scoff the lot

So my modification would be 100g dark choc and an extra tblspoon of drinking choc or cocoa. I also use white choc chip instead of walnuts.

MoosMa · 08/01/2008 18:55

I don't like walnuts and didn't have any choc chips so I bashed up a load of chocloate buttons and put them in instead, I think it worked, maybe I should eat a bit more and find out....
