Double Chocolate Heath Bar Brownie

Double Chocolate Heath Bar Brownie

Double Chocolate Heath Bar Brownie... Love it! Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate..
Who wouldn't love this! I have been baking quite a bit but recently noticed I haven't made too many
chocolate items. I decided to see what I had on hand and found something. So I took a box mix and
made it into a dessert. This Double Chocolate Heath Bar Brownie turned out to be an elegant chocolaty sweetness. You could take this to a formal or informal dinner party. There are many variations to accent this dish. Some suggestions would be add coconut and pecans(for the German chocolate appeal), marshmallow creme, addition chocolates, peanut butter, snickers bar(or candy of your choice chopped up), nuts even fresh fruit like cherries and the list goes. So if you get invited at the last minute for dinner or lunch and you need to bring something quick keep this in mind. All you have to do is be creative and experiment. I baked mine in a 10 inch tart pan but you could use a 9x13 pan or even a(12) muffin pan.

Double Chocolate Heath Bar Brownie


Ingredients:

I box double chocolate muffin/bread mix(I used Betty Crocker)
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup oil
2 eggs
1/2 cup heath bar crushed
1/2 cup chopped pecans

caramel sauce (optional)
chocolate sauce or gnache(optional)

Box mix and Crushed Heath Bar baking pieces



Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl (or counter top mixer) mix together box mix, water, oil and eggs. Take a 10 inch tart pan (with lift bottom) and line it with a 10 inch round piece of parchment paper. Then spray the pan with cooking spray along sides and atop the parchment paper. Next spoon 3/4 of the batter in the pan evenly. Then sprinkle 3/4 of the heath bar and 3/4 of the pecans evenly over batter. Take remaining batter and spread over top(it will not be enough to cover completely) then sprinkle the remaining heath bar and pecans over that.  It should have this uneven look of batter and nuts but don't worry that's what gives it the texture you will be looking for. If you like you can drizzle caramel over the top before you bake. Place the tart pan on a baking sheet.  Bake for 25 minutes.  When done, remove from oven and let cool. You can plate this on your favorite cake stand or platter.  Then drizzle caramel and or chocolate sauce over the top. For individual plating and presentation you can drizzle chocolate on the plate or over top.


Remember, have fun and make it yours.
