3. Step-by-Step Instructions for Creating Assorted Brownies

Preparing the brownie batter

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and sugar, whisking until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Mixing dry ingredients

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, folding gently until well combined. Then, fold in the chocolate chips and nuts if using.

Creating the assorted brownies

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Now, the fun part! Divide the batter into sections or dollop different add-ins (marshmallows, crushed cookies, candies) to create a variety of flavors in each brownie. Use a toothpick or skewer to swirl or gently press the add-ins into the batter.

Baking instructions

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. For a more professional finish, use a Fullstar Ultimate Veggie Prep Master for uniform cuts.
