Another recipe from Ingrid Hoffmann....what a surprise....LOL!!! These looked really good when I was watching her show, so since I had a box of Brownie mix in the house I decided to make them.....and how can anything with chocolate be bad. These brownies have a Latin flair as they are made with espresso and chili powder as well as some cinnamon. Again, I'm sorry for the quality of the photos....I will have my camera back tomorrow evening!! The frosting doesn't look like I wanted it to, but the brownies themselves taste absolutely amazing!!
Domino Brownies
Serves 6
Ingredients1 box brownie mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup milk
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
ICING:
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
*1 large egg white(not shown)
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13 by 9-inch metal baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
To make the brownie batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, oil, milk, and eggs. Beat with a handheld electric mixer on medium speed until well combined and the batter is smooth. Sprinkle in the espresso powder, chili, powder, and cinnamon. Beat for another minute to evenly distribute.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Allow the brownies to cool in the pan completely.
Combine the confectioners' sugar, egg white, and lemon juice in a mixing bowl. Beat with the electric mixer on medium speed until it is very fluffy and the consistency of meringue. This will take about 5 minutes. Put the icing into a disposable plastic bag or use a pastry bag with a fine tip. Carefully cut off a tiny piece of the corner, making a tiny hole.
Once completely cool, cut the brownies into domino-size pieces, about 1 by 2-inches. Lay the brownies in a domino game pattern on a serving platter. Carefully, pipe small white dots and a line across the middle of the brownie so they look like domino pieces.
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteIn answer to your question about poblano peppers... sometimes they are spicy and sometimes they are mild. It's luck of the draw. Hope this helps.
