Drunken Brownies Anyone? They Will Make Your Taste Buds Spin!

Brownies are my favorite dessert to bring to potlucks or small family or friend gatherings. Everyone loves brownies. We take out cartons of milk or vanilla ice cream and start devouring the brownies with them. No one actually complains whenever I bring brownies or whenever someone else brings brownies. I am always sure that they will be gone by the time a certain party is finished. No one will be able to resist a fudgy chocolaty goodness.

Check out what our friends from EHow have to say about this recipe:

“These brownies are for those of us who need that crackly top, along with a dense, rich, and chocolatey flavor that is so decadent you’ll need a big stout beer to wash them down. Never had a beer with your brownies? You now have a new weekend goal.”

The truth is, sometimes we eat brownies with beer; at least whenever I am with friends. I don’t drink in front of the kids; my husband doesn’t too. But they taste good with beer actually; another perfect accompaniment just like coffee.

 

Ingredients

6 weight ounce Toll House dark chocolate chips

 

 1/3 cup Murphy’s stout beer

 

 1/2 cup Land O Lakes melted butter

 

 1 cup Domino granulated sugar

 

 1/2 cup Domino brown sugar

 

 3 large Eggland’s eggs

 

 3/4 cup Gold Medal all purpose flour

 

 1 teaspoon Morton salt

 

 1/4 cup Hershey’s unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a large bowl whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
One at a time add the eggs, whisking until well combined before adding another (whisk more than you think necessary)
Add the chocolate and the beer to the top of a double boiler. Stir over medium heat until the chocolate is melted and well combined with the beer.
Add the chocolate to the butter mixture, whisk until well combined.
Add the flour, salt and cocoa powder to the bowl, stir until just combined.
Pour into an 8 X 8 pan that has been lined with parchment paper or sprayed with cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 22 to 25 minutes (do not over-bake) or until the brownies do not jiggle when the pan is shaken and a tooth pick inserted into the center returns with moist crumbs attached (but not raw batter).
Allow to cool completely before cutting. This may take several hours. Brownies will be soft and fudgy. Brownies are best the day after being made.

Quick Tip: Brownies don’t need baking soda or baking powder — eggs and beer are mild leaveners and are more than enough. A leavening agent would make them cake-like. You want your brownies fudgy, don’t you?
