Everybody loves brownies. It's just a fact of life. Of course, everyone has their preferences (fudgy vs. cakey; frosted vs. non-frosted; nuts vs. no nuts; brownies vs. blondies) but everybody still loves brownies. I personally am more of a fudgy, non-frosted, no nuts, brownie kind of girl, but I can appreciate virtually any type of brownie. This recipes looks like a rather run of the mill brownie recipe, except for the addition of the spices. I can't wait to give these a try. They sound fantastic.
A few notes about the recipe though. There is no oven temp given, and the cook time is only 5-6 minutes, so that leads me to believe that this is a microwave recipe. I have no problems with microwaves (most of the time) so I'm fine with that. Plus it's fast and easy, which makes it a great way to follow yesterday's complicated post.

Please make these in the microwave and tell me if it really is a microwave recipe. It would be nice to have brownies I can make without an oven.

ReplyDeleteThey are indeed microwave brownies. I would lean towards six minutes rather than five though. And longer if your microwave is weak. I used almonds (because it's what I had) and I sprinkled the top with sugar in the raw (because I didn't have powdered sugar). They are delicious.
