Those searching long and hard to make a rich, fudgy brownie should try adding one unusual snack to their delicious treat. Youtuber and food blogger Joshua Weissman says those searching to make “the most perfect” brownie should ditch the box mix and opt for making the crowdpleaser yourself from your heart.
He says the trick to making “the best brownies of all time” is by keeping it simple and adding lots of butter, flour, chocolate. But to elevate their squidgy chocolate bake, home cooks should try adding a rather unusual item. Josha recommends adding 20 grams of crushed pretzels to your brownie mix.
This mouthwatering recipe, named the naughty compost brownie, combines the rich, chocolatey flavor of traditional fudgy brownies with the salty crunch of pretzels.
The result is a dessert that is both sweet and savoury, and perfect for satisfying both cravings. This recipe has clearly impressed viewers with it being watched 2.5 million times.
As well as crushed pretzels, Jason adds one cup of crushed potato chips and half a cup of mini marshmallows.
Then top with additional crushed pretzels and crushed potato chips as well as two ounces of dark chocolate. The youtuber, who has amassed a following of 10.2 million, recommends letting the gooey treat cool before eating.
Jason says: “All that pretzel and potato chip going on in here kinda makes sense.”
In response to the recipe, one user said: “Love love love your recipes! I made your brownie recipe linked but added 1/4 cup brown sugar for chewiness and 1/4 whole milk.
“These are the best brownies I’ve ever tasted and my husband won’t stop bragging about them to everyone. Can’t wait to get my cookbooks.”
Another added: “This is the first time I’ve tried one of your recipes, the flavour is just perfect.”
