Homemade Brownie Mix

The Cookie Rookie, Becky Hardin, United States.
This recipe comes from a social media friend and comes highly recommended. This is the mix and the instructions to make the brownies, so sort of a 2 for 1 recipe. This mix as stated makes the equivalent of 1 store bought boxed mix. Easy to assemble mix, and wonderful brownies, highly recommended!

  • Pour mixture into the prepared baking pan.
  • Bake for 20-25 or until desired doneness, less for gooier type brownies, a bit more for cakier type brownies. Remove from oven and and cool pan on a rack for 10 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes, use a butter knife and cut along the two sides of the pan with no parchment. Use the parchment overhangs and carefully lift out of the pan and place on the wire rack and allow to cool another 10 minutes.
  • Cut into 9 squares, serve and enjoy.

Notes

Recipe easily doubles, just use two batches of Mix and bake in a 9x13 baking pan.
Variants: 1. Regular size or mini chocolate chips can be semisweet, dark, milk, or even white. 2. Replace the chocolate chips with 1 cup M&M candies or 1 cup chopped Oreo cookies. 3. In addition to the chocolate chips, add ½ cup nuts, such as chopped walnuts, pecans, cashews, almonds, or mixed nuts.
