This secret ingredient takes your box brownie mix to the next level!
Here’s an easy and amazing brownie recipe. A good friend of mine taught me this simple addition a few years ago. more Tasty brownies.
Now I like a good brownie…not always my choice for dessert. If you offer it to me, of course I’ll take it. But it’s not something you choose to make on a whim.
until now. 🙂
I have to introduce you to the most amazing brownies ever. There is a special secret ingredient that will rock your world. I asked a friend for the recipe, thinking it was a very special family tradition that had been passed down for generations. box mix.
First of all, I didn’t even know about dark chocolate brownies. A few years ago I didn’t like dark chocolate, but now I love it.
There are actually two secret ingredients, one that didn’t surprise me as much as the other…get it?:
Cinnamon was no big shock. I mean, have you ever had chili with cinnamon?
But the kicker (literally) was the chili powder.
You make them according to the box (she subbed with coconut oil instead of vegetable oil and I do the same), then add 3 teaspoons of cinnamon and 1-2 teaspoons of chili powder.
that’s it! You’ll notice something different, but nothing overwhelming. It’s just right. I used 1 teaspoon of chili in a batch (I had to make one. hmmshow me all) and it was perfect, but I will definitely try more.
It’s hard to explain why these are better, so try them yourself. We were all standing around and grunting over the flavors. very delicious.
I would be happy to send you a sample. 🙂
I love sharing simple and delicious recipes and this is one of them. Please, try it.
Have you tried this trick with brownies? Chocolate cakes and cupcakes would work too…I’d love to try that next time.
