Alton Browns Black White Brownies Recipes

BLACK AND WHITE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan.
• In a medium-large saucepan over low heat, melt the butter with the unsweetened chocolate, whisking occasionally, until smooth and fully melted. Sprinkle in cocoa powder and whisk to combine. Remove the pan from heat and allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
• Stir in sugar and vanilla until just combined. Stir in the eggs, one at a time. Gently stir in the flour until halfway incorporated. Add the white chocolate chips and stir just until combined.
• Pour the batter (it will be very thick!) into the baking pan and spread to even out the top.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes, then check the brownies with a toothpick; if they are overly gooey/messy, return them to the oven for another 5 to 10 minutes. (Just be careful not to burn the edges.)
• Allow the brownies to cool completely. Cut into 1-by-2-inch fingers and place on a rack over a baking sheet.
• Melt the almond bark in a double-boiler (or in the microwave in 30-second intervals). Dip one end of each brownie finger into the almond bark and then return to the rack until the coating has hardened, 5 to 10 minutes.

BLACK AND WHITE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees, and lightly grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
• Melt unsweetened chocolate and butter in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth.
• Using a rubber spatula, scrape chocolate mixture into large bowl. Whisk in oil and sugar, and let cool for about 5 minutes.
• As the chocolate mixture cools, whisk together flour, cocoa powder and salt in a medium bowl.
• Whisk eggs into cooled chocolate mixture until well combined, then whisk in vanilla. Using a rubber spatula, fold in flour mixture. Fold in most of the chocolate chunks, reserving the larger chunks to place on top.
• Scrape batter into prepared pan and smooth it into an even layer. Scatter the reserved chocolate chunks on top. Sprinkle lightly with flaky sea salt, and bake until the top is set and firm to touch, 17 to 23 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into 16 squares.

BLACK & WHITE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease and line a 20 x 30cm tin with baking parchment. Finely chop 150g of the dark chocolate, and roughly chop the remaining dark chocolate and the white chocolate. Put the finely chopped chocolate in a bowl and melt over a small pan of gently simmering water, or in the microwave. Set aside to cool a little.
• Put the butter and 350g of the sugar in a bowl, and beat until light and fluffy. Add 4 of the eggs, one at a time, beating well between each addition, then sift in the flour, cocoa, baking powder and a good pinch of salt. Finally, stir in the melted chocolate and the chopped chocolate chunks. Scrape the mixture into the prepared tin and smooth the surface.
• Working quickly, tip the cream cheese into a bowl and beat to soften with a spatula. Add the remaining egg, flour and sugar, and mix until just combined. Spoon blobs of the cream cheese mixture onto the brownie until all used up, and use the end of a cutlery knife or a skewer to swirl the 2 mixtures together to create a marbled effect. Bake for 30 mins until just set - it should still have a little wobble when it comes out of the oven, and a skewer inserted into the centre should come out with sticky crumbs. Cool completely in the tin before cutting into squares to serve.

"BROWN ON BLONDE" BLONDIES

Steps:

• Crank the oven to 350ºF. Coat the insides of an 8-inch square baking pan with non-stick cooking spray and line with a sling of parchment paper.
• Melt the butter in an 8-inch sauté pan over medium heat. When it's done bubbling, add the walnuts and pecans and cook until the nuts are toasted and the butter smells nutty, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.
• Place a fine-mesh strainer over a large heatproof bowl and strain the butter away from the nuts. Set both aside to cool for 30 minutes. Then, chop the nuts coarsely and set aside.
• While you're waiting, beat the almond butter into the cooled butter, followed by the brown sugar, eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla. Beat until completely smooth, about 1 minute, then stir in the flour mixture. Finish by folding in the nuts and transferring to the prepared pan. The batter will be thick, so I suggest a rubber or silicone spatula.
• Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the edges are deeply brown and the top is dry and cracked. Remove from the pan and cool on a rack for about 30 minutes. Slice into squares and devour with plenty of frosty almond milk.

RICH BLACK AND WHITE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Beat 3/4 cup butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy; beat in eggs and vanilla extract.
• Mix 2 1/4 cup flour, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl; stir flour mixture into creamed butter mixture until batter is smooth. Divide batter into two bowls.
• Whisk cocoa powder and 1 tablespoon melted butter together in a bowl; stir into 1 of the bowls of batter. This will be the 'black half'. Pour black half into the prepared baking pan.
• Stir the remaining 1/4 cup flour and milk chocolate chips into the remaining bowl of batter creating the 'white half'. Spread white half evenly over black half. Sprinkle white chocolate chips over white half.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges begin to pull away from the sides of the pan, 20 to 30 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
