It's difficult to improve upon the classic chocolate brownie, but when I saw this dressed up version at Foley's Follies I knew this traditional favorite had been kicked up a notch or two.Barb described these bars as "brownies with the frosting on the inside."
Simply prepare your favorite brownie recipe. Spread half of the batter in the pan and top with your favorite candy bars. I used 4 Hershey chocolate bars, and they covered the 8" square pan perfectly. Barb used Symphony bars with toffee. I topped the candy with 1/2 cup chopped walnuts and then added the remaining batter which I carefully spread over the top of the candy and nuts. Bake according to your recipe. These are yummy delicious and rich so serve with a glass of cold milk or a scoop of ice cream. Delicious!
wow, you just took brownies into another level of goodness.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great addition, Cathy!I'll have to try this next time I make brownies.
ReplyDeleteWow! such a tempting piece of brownie...love that photo very much.
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable :-). This was a great idea. I can't wait to try this. Have a wonderful day, Cathy.
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, those look divine. i'm going to the store now to purchase the ingredients, YUMMY!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! These are Dangerous! Brownies are my weakness!
ReplyDeleteOMGosh - you're killing me. These look soooooo
ReplyDeletegood. I think that I would put broken up Heath Bars in mine, with toasted pecans...or maybe Butter Fingers, with cashews...or Twix Bars *sigh*
This could get ugly. LOL
Great idea. Easy too.

We agree on both points--it's pretty hard to top a classic brownie, but this idea might do just that! We can't wait to try it out with our favorite brownie recipe.
ReplyDeletewow divine
ReplyDeleteThanks!! It makes sense!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! My kids and husband would LOVE these.
ReplyDeleteThat is he coolest idea ever that will be coming to my house soon!
ReplyDeleteLOL - now that you have started you won't be able to stop!! My son is always coming up with some combination, and I like your idea of adding nuts of any kind!
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked them - and it is so simple!
If I only had one of these RIGHT NOW! We love brownies - I'll have to give this recipe a try.
ReplyDeleteSo simple yet so WOW! Will have to remember to try this next time I make brownies!
ReplyDeleteOh Cathy, this brownie looks awesome! Easy and such a cool twist on the norm! I will give it a try.
ReplyDeleteOh. My. Goodness. THAT IS BRILLIANT! These look amazing.
ReplyDeleteFirst Barb tempted me and now you too! I can't make them until I have company so I don't eat them all myself. I'm a nutty gal too :)
ReplyDeleteit just doesn't get any better then this!
ReplyDeleteI'm, I'm, I'm speechless! This is genius. It will be made. Soon. Very, very soon. I suspect these brownies will only last about 2.2 seconds in my house. And for any of your readers who are gluten free, I'm going to try making this using a gluten free brownie mix. Then, I will fall into a blissful chocolate coma! :-) I've got to tell Marjie from ModernDayOzzieandHarriet about this. She makes brownies every Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I can imagine so many yummy possibilities!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful brownies Cathy! I m drooling!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful brownie! I love the nuts. Why don't I think to add nuts more often? And a layer of candy bars is such a simple dress up. Great idea.
