I was in a baking mood today, so I went rummaging through the cabinets to see what ingredients I had to work with. I found enough ingredients to whip up some brownies. I found a really good brownie recipe online, that called for Irish Creme to be added. We didn't have any, so I subsititued with Kahlua, and I must say, they turned out quite well. These turn out really chewey/fudgey and less cake like. I also doubled my ingredients and used a 13 x 9 pan. Enoy!
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup butter
2 TBS water
2 cups chocolate chips
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
3/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt (I usually just put a pinch)
1/4 tsp baking soda
** I added 2 TBS of Kahlua. The orignal recipe called for 4 TBS of Irish Creme.
**you can easily double the recipe which I did this. I used an 13 X 9 pan for double the recipe.
In a medium bowl combine flour, salt and baking soda. Set aside. In saucepan, over medium heat, bring sugar, butter and water to boil.
Remove from heat. Stir in 1 cup chips and vanilla or any flavoring you like or both! Stir till smooth. Cool 5 minutes. Beat in eggs 1 at a time until well mixed. Add flour mixture and combine.
Add 1 cup chocolate chips and combine quickly so as not to completely melt the chips ( if they do ...it is OK they still come out great!).
Pour into a greased, 8x8 square pan.
Since I doubled it, I used an 13 X 9 pan.
Bake in a preheated oven set at 325. for 35 minutes. (if doubling it let bake for an additional 3-5 minutes). Cool completely.
