I love Brownies! Whether you like them with pecans or sans the nuts everyone agrees that a Brownie is one awesome tasty treat. Here is some information about America's favorite chocolate delite...The Brownie!
What exactly is a Brownie?
A brownie or chocolate brownie is an American invented dessert or snack food: a semi-flat square or bar, made with chocolate and baked in a sheet pan, something like a dense chocolate cake.Websters New World College Dictionary, 4th Edition, 2008.
Brownies density ranges from fudgy to cake-like. They may feature a variety of toppings and ingredients such as frosting, nuts, cream cheese, and chocolate chips.
Brownies are common lunchbox fare, typically eaten by hand, and often accompanied by milk or coffee. They are sometimes served warm with ice cream (Category: wikt - :à la mode|à la mode) or topped with whipped cream, especially in restaurants. Some specialty outlets offer a "Sizzling Brownie" with a brownie on a hot plate with boiled chocolate.
A similar bar made with brown sugar and no chocolate is called a blondie. They are also baked in a pan in the oven similar to how traditional brownies are baked.
