I am always making brownies for potluck dinners, luncheons and when we need a chocolate fix. They are so easy, from a mix, and so yummy when I cut away the crusty edge for myself, plus, they are a hit every time. The problem is, no matter if I let them completely cool, they are difficult to cut into neat squares.
Well, bring in the hacks (formerly known as helpful hints,) from Facebook. One particular tip said to use a short sawing motion with a plastic knife versus a sharp metal knife and, by cracky, it worked wonderfully! Refer to the picture. The neat squares on the left side are cut with the white plastic knife and the chewed-up, rough-looking squares are cut with a metal, even serrated knife. I tell everybody about this hack that works. I have the photographic proof right here!
Happy Baking!
This is the ditty swirling about in my head. I invite you to sing along to the tune of The Farmer in the Dell.
I have a brand new vice.
I think it's very nice.
Although it's not too good for me,
I want to do it twice.
Now picture me with it.
A lot or just a bit.
I can pig out, without a doubt.
I'll not get sick a whit!
It's chocolate, so you see,
This is my fervent plea.
I'll give to you the recipe,
But drop down on one knee.
Chocolate Vice Recipe:
One box of #brownie mix on sale (BOGO is best.)
Water to taste
One Fork
In a small glass of your choosing, keeping in mind a fancy champagne or wine goblet will make the tasting even more festive, pour at least a 1/4 cup of dry brownie mix into the glass. Dribble a slight amount of water on top and stir with the fork. Repeat and repeat and repeat ...
Oh, I just realized I'm saving money, too, by making this chocolate recipe! To that end, here are some new lyrics to my ditty:
I have a brand new tip.
You'll thank me quite a bit.
No oven heat or eggs or oil,
Just happiness to the lip!
See, I told you it's fun in my world.
