Chewy Blood Orange Chocolate Brownies Recipes

CHEWIEST BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line one 9x13 inch pan with greased parchment paper.
• Combine the cocoa, melted butter, sugar, eggs, salt , flour and vanilla. Mix until well combined. It should be very thick and sticky.
• Spread mixture into the prepared pan. Bake at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) for 30 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into squares.

FUDGY BROWNIES

Steps:

• Get prepared
• Arrange the oven racks so one is in the center position. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Spray the bottom and sides of an 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Cut a piece of parchment paper 8 inches wide and 15 to 16 inches long. Lay the paper in the pan so it travels up and over two of the sides. Spray the paper with nonstick cooking spray.
• Make the batter
• Pour 1 to 2 inches of water into the bottom of a small saucepan and choose a bowl that fits over the saucepan to make a double boiler. Make sure the water is not touching the bottom of the bowl; if it is, pour some water out. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low to maintain a gentle simmer.
• Unless you are using chocolate chips, roughly chop the chocolate. Put the butter and chocolate into the bowl of the double boiler and melt them, using a heat-proof rubber spatula to stir and scrape down the sides of the bowl so the chocolate doesn't burn.
• Remove the bowl from the double boiler and wipe the bottom of the bowl so no water drips. Add the sugar, vanilla, and salt and whisk them in. Add the eggs one at a time and whisk until the batter is shiny and smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the flour and stir with a rubber spatula until no flour is visible.
• Bake the brownies
• Using a rubber spatula, transfer the batter to the prepared pan. Use the spatula to smooth out the top of the batter.
• Place the brownies on the center rack of the oven and bake for 20 minutes, rotating the pan from front to back halfway through the baking. Remove the brownies from the oven and cool on a cooling rack. The tops will appear dry, but the insides will remain fudgy if you poke the center with a toothpick or cake tester. Holding the sides of the parchment paper, lift the brownies out of the pan and place them on a cutting board. Using a large knife, cut the brownies into 16 equal pieces.
• Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.

CHEWY BLOOD ORANGE & CHOCOLATE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease a 9x9" baking pan. In medium bowl, mix together the oil, sugar & vanilla. Beat in eggs. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder & salt then gradually stir into the egg mixture until well blended. Stir in walnuts, if desired. Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake 20-25 minutes or until the edges begin to pull away from the sides of the pan. Let cool on a wire rack before cutting into squares. Top with whipping cream flavored (add prior to whipping) with a tablespoon of the Blood Orange olive oil.

CHEWY CHOCOLATE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Turn on the oven to 180 degrees and butter the tin you're using, then cover with greaseproof paper. The best tin for this would be a thinner, wider version of a loaf tin (a brownie tin).
• Melt the butter. You can either do this in a pan over the stove, or in a microwave. If you're using a microwave, place the butter in a microwavable dish and microwave for about 40 seconds. Then add the caster sugar, mix well. Sieve the hot chocolate (or cocoa powder) over the mixture, and stir in.
• Next, add the vanilla extract and 3 eggs. For best results at this stage, use a whisk as this will combine the eggs and previous mixture faster than using a wooden spoon or similar.
• Place the dark chocolate and milk chocolate into a suitable heatproof bowl, and place over a pan of simmering water. Stir the chocolate to allow it to melt, whilst ensuring that none of the water enters the bowl. When all of the chocolate is melted, carefully take out the bowl and leave to cool for a few minutes. When the bowl is at a temperature appropriate for holding, pour the chocolate into the mixture.
• Following this, sieve the plain flour over the mixture along with the baking powder and fold in carefully. Cut the white chocolate into little cubes and add to the mixture, still folding it in as otherwise the air in the mixture will be lost.
• Once all of the ingredients are in the mixture, pour it into the tin. Cook at 180 degrees for about 40 minutes. To check whether it's cooked, take a spoon or fork, hold the part you usually put in your mouth and put the other end into the brownie. If this comes out clean, the brownie is done - if not place the brownie back in the oven and cook for another 15 minutes.

BLONDE BROWNIES I

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan.
• Measure 1 cup sifted flour. Add baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Sift again. Add 1/2 cup chopped nuts. Mix well and set aside.
• Stir the brown sugar into the melted butter and mix well. Cool slightly.
• Mix the beaten egg and vanilla into the brown sugar mixture. Add flour mixture, a little at a time, mixing just until combined.
• Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle 1/2 to 1 cup chocolate chips on top. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes.

CHOCOLATE ORANGE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line a 24 x 20cm brownie tin with baking parchment. Put the butter, dark chocolate and orange zest in a non-stick saucepan and very gently melt over a low heat, stirring every now and then, until smooth - take care not to overheat it. Cool.
• Whisk the eggs and sugar together with an electric whisk until the mixture is pale, has doubled in volume and leaves a trail when the beaters are lifted. Gently stir into the cooled chocolate mixture. Sift over the flour and cocoa, stir in, then add the orange chocolate.
• Pour into the lined tin and bake for 35-40 mins. Cool in the tin, then cut into squares.
