If you like the taste of brownies and like the stylization of peanut brittle, you can combine these two - without even making a brownie mix - into a brownie brittle - that tastes just identical to the brownies you've known and loved that is as edible as something that can be easily stuffed in your mouth and eaten (much like a chip).
Ingredients
Brittle
- 1 large egg
- 1 / 4 cup canola oil
- 1 / 2 cup sugar
- 1 tbsp water
- 1 / 2 vanilla extract
- 1 / 3 all-purpose flour
- 3 tbsp baking cocoa
- 1 / 4 tsp salt
- 1 / 4 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp espresso powder (optional)
- Nuts to taste - but must be chopped.
Drizzle
- 1 / 4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 tsp canola oil
Steps
-
1Preheat your oven. Set the oven to 350 °F (177 °C).
-
2Prepare the brittle. Combine all the necessary ingredients - as directed from the ingredients list above. This should include the egg, canola oil, sugar, water, vanilla extract, all-purpose flour, baking cocoa, salt, and baking powder.Advertisement
-
3Use a whisk to whisk these ingredients together - forming the "chip" portion of the brittle.
-
4Grease a 15x10x1 inch pan. This becomes your baking surface.
- You may also line this same-size pan with parchment paper.
-
5Bake the pan for 12 to 15 minutes, or until it's very firm.
-
6Cool the mixture on a wire rack.
-
7Break these brittle slabs into pieces. You may want to place a sheet of parchment paper over your brittle and slap them with a hammer.
-
8Prepare the drizzle. Combine and melt the chocolate chips with the oil and stir.
-
9Use the drizzle on the brittle pieces. Drizzle some of the drizzle over the brittle so as to make lines over the pieces in random waviness forms.Advertisement
