I tell you I have tried those ooopsie things now 5 times.. and all 5 times.. when I go to pick one up...even after cooling them off.. they crumble in my hand..

ica171 · 08-26-2011, 10:55 AM

Have you tried lowering the cooking time? Crumbling is a sign of overcooking. Also, I've read where some people have better luck cooking them on a lower temperature for slightly longer, too. Maybe split a batch and try both ways.

crazyone · 08-26-2011, 10:58 AM

oh wow no I never thought about lowering the cooking time...I will definitely try it.. thank you so much for the great tip...

nspeedracer · 08-26-2011, 01:13 PM

Thank you, i will have to try again soon.

I hope I can master these things, they would be a great addition to my overly simple and boring menu.

cleochatra · 08-27-2011, 07:31 AM

Crumbling is definite lack of moisture. I cook for 300 degrees for 30 minutes. Maybe, if yours are still too dry, you could try cooking slightly less time.

OMG I WANT THAT!!!

Thanks for the tip Cleo...

nspeedracer · 08-27-2011, 05:09 PM

Do you use a special pan to make them round like that? could a muffin pan work? mine just went completely flat and almost liquidy last time i attempted...

nspeedracer · 08-27-2011, 05:14 PM

I was super careful when folding the mixture together too. i could try getting a muffin top pan...

cleochatra · 08-27-2011, 05:23 PM

You could definitely use a muffin top pan, or those mini Wilton cake pans that are non-stick and sold in sets and are super cute and useful. The best things about those pans is even if you're having a bad batter day, they're still going to look amazing when you're done.

cleochatra · 09-12-2011, 05:40 PM

Just stay away from the maltitol fudge sauce in the stores and make your own with my chocolate sauce recipe (or one sans maltitol). Trust me on this.

Martini72 · 09-12-2011, 06:36 PM

I SOOOO TRUST YOUUUUU!!!! I MADE A CREAM CHEESE THINGIE TO KEEP ME ALIVE...lol

cleochatra · 09-12-2011, 07:05 PM

Cream cheese thingies are definite lifesavers.

OMG I as soon as I opened this thread I was greeted by this!! LOL YUMMO!!

crazyone · 09-19-2011, 05:10 PM

Stupid question... can the brownies be made just with Hersheys' unsweetened powder cocoa?

Candiflip · 09-19-2011, 05:12 PM

You mean like subbing for the lindt? or just the dutch process cocoa? IF you mean cocoa powder only, then yes, you can use what you always/normally use. BUT NO if if you mean by replacing the lindt chocolate as well. HTH!

crazyone · 09-19-2011, 05:15 PM

Yeah replacing all the chocolate with the unsweetened powder.. I don't have any of the other chocolate in my house...

Can I just tell you, your blog is amazing!! I know the Canadian thanksgiving is coming up...but when mine comes up a month later.. I am going to make a few things from your blog...

Candiflip · 09-19-2011, 05:19 PM

Thanks Melinda :wub:

Yeah these brownies are DEF worth a trip to the store to pick up the chocolate!

Martini72 · 09-19-2011, 07:47 PM

Crazy my poor attempt at quick is cream cheese, a little Ideal sweetner and a splash of vanilla for the bottom layer, a snack pack of SF pudding and whip cream on top. OK..I'm going to make on in a martini glass!!! NOW...LOL

Jonika · 09-19-2011, 08:53 PM

Candice, I am making your chocolate brownies as I type (they are in the oven). The batter was thick after I mixed all ingredients together. I used 90% Lindt since that's the one I like the best (it has a slightly different -to me better - flavor than the 85%) and I used 1 Cup of Truvia. I will post my impressions tomorrow.

Candiflip · 09-20-2011, 06:54 AM

Can't wait to hear! BAD me had one with my breakfast! THE REST TO THE FREEZER!!

Monkee · 09-20-2011, 08:37 AM

Ice cream and brownies!!! You chicas just made my morning.
