Copycat comic brownies
Dense and moist brownies topped with a thick chocolate glaze with chocolate covered candies on top. It’s an unforgettable snack. But my homemade version is so much better, it has the perfect amount of sweetness, its chewy, fudgy and moist without all the added preservatives.
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoon butter
- 4 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 4 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup all purpose flour
- 5 tablespoon cocoa powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp cornstarch
Glaze
- ¼ cup chocolate use preference, I used dark
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup candy chips topping of choice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350
- In a medium sized microwave proof bowl melt the butter and add both sugars, and cocoa powder and mix until it’s combined.
- Add the egg and vanilla. Measure the remaining dry ingredients and add it into the butter mixture just until thoroughly mixed.
- Line a bread loaf pan with parchment paper and pour the batter making sure to spread it evenly.
- Bake for 15 to 18 mins. The brownies won’t look ready but make sure to stick a clean toothpick in to make sure it’s ready. If the toothpick is still wet add a couple more minutes.
- When the brownies are done allow them to cool on the counter completely while making the glaze.
- Place the chocolate chips in a heat safe bowl and heat up the heavy cream in the microwave until it’s hot. Pour the heavy cream over the chocolate and place a plastic film over the bowl. This will allow the heat from the heavy cream to stay inside the bowl. Check back in 15 mins and mix the ganache. The ganache should be nice and smooth.
- Once the brownies are cooled pour the ganache over the brownies. Tilt the pan corner to corner to allow the ganache to spread by itself over the brownies. This will create a nice clean topping. Sprinkle the glaze with topping of choice.
- Refrigerate the brownies in the fridge until it sets. Once set you can cut them up and enjoy them.
