Easy Brownies 简易布朗尼
How can you have Christmas without chocolate! Chocolate lovers know that receiving chocolate as gift is always exciting. Chocolate brownies are the best dessert to serve or wrap as a gift for the festive holidays. My today’s post is Easy Brownies. It is a soft and fragrant piece of cake that valrhona chocolate and cocoa powder are being used. Walnuts are added in the brownies with chocolate crumbles as topping that give a nutty and crisp bites. If you prefer the brownies to be sweeter, you can also add some chocolate chips into it or substitute the chocolate crumbles for chocolate ganache topping. The addition of rum or mint is also a classic combination. Do give a try with mixing and matching the flavours to suit your taste and share this wonderful brownies to your family and friends for Christmas.

wonderful demonstration and brownies….looks good
Hi ann , can i check the semi sweet choco is converture? Jus melt it no need temper right? Btw can i skip the walnut?
Hi Cherry, The semi sweet chocolate is cooking chocolate. You can get it from Phoon Huat. Is ok to skip the walnut or add chocolate chips if you like.
Hi Ann , do u have a pic of the chocolate u use cause i always go phoon huat i saw is compound or converture
Hi Cherry, Sorry I don’t have the semi-sweet choc on hand now. It is actually the compound choc from PH.
ohhh okok thk u so much , izzit the tulip brand of the round type?
you can use either one.
can i ask izzit compound or converture doesn’t matter? cause i always got confuse with chocolate
Compound is cooking chocolate and easy melting than converture chocolate.
Converture chocolate requires more attention and preparation when being melted down. It has to be tempered. If it’s not, then the chocolate will bloom, or may not even set up properly.
Do u have picture for it?
great!

Hi Ann, I would like to bake this for children’s day celebration. May I know how many pieces can we get from this brownie batter?
Thank you so much
Hi Phoebil, is about 18 pieces but also depend on how you want to cut the brownies.
Nice articles. I'm just blogwalking and very happy to stop here. And also give you some comment and following your blog here.Dont forget to give us some your comment into my blog and following me back too.Thanks for share,* BLACK HEART 2012 *
How to store the brownie? Can keep in fridge for how many days or room temp?
Hi Cherry, Is better to consume the brownie within 2-3 days as it will dries up if you store in the fridge for too many days. Thaw the brownie 1-2 hour in room temp after chilling.
