Substitute extra virgin olive oil for vegetable oil in recipe for brownies?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In substituting olive oil for vegetable oil you would use the same amounts, but bear in mind olive oil can have a stronger taste than vegetable oil. It may be wise to replace some of the oil with butter or applesauce to avoid a strong olive taste.

Are brownies cakes?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, brownies are technically 'cakes'.

ANSWER

no they are brownies or cakes or chocolate squares

ANSWER

No, you are both technically wrong. Brownies are a type of cookie called bar cookies.

Yet another answer :-)

It seems like the masses disagree on what a Brownie is :-)

I would just like to point out that it is normally baked as a cake in a square pan.

After baking it is sort of dry like a cookie.

It is also cut up in squares at the size of a cookie.

It is normally served the same way as a cookie would be.

It is simply one of those cakes that taste like a cookie. Mouth watering already. Where do I have that recipy for it... I am going to make some.

What to do to not feel sick after eating a brownie and cake and cookie?

User Avatar

Asked by Slbeehler

Aside from not eating brownie, cake, and cookie? Smaller portions would be a great start. Your body probably wasn't too happy with the sudden high influx of sugar, which is not used to. If you really must have all three then have a little bit of each. A bit of protein and fat (say a glass of milk) may help slow down the insulin crash you probably felt.

If you have excess breast milk can you use it in your brownies?

User Avatar

Asked by Black4lyfe

Breast milk can be used in recipes for brownies or anything else. What you have to watch is that breast milk is much different than cow's milk. Human milk has much less fat than cow's milk and this will change the outcome of your recipe. Give it a try and let us know your results. This would be a great use of expressed breast milk that the baby does not need.

How do you store brownies?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You store desserts as you would any type of food, keeping cold food cold and hot food hot. Obviously it depends on which dessert you are referring to but as a rule of thumb if ingredients that needed to be refrigerated are in the confection, then the end product will need to be refrigerated too.

What can be substituted for 2 eggs when making brownies?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

no worries... brownies will be a bit thicker (less cake like), you may want to add a LITTLE extra fat (i.e. butter or oil) to compensate for the loss in the yolk. but they should come out just fine.

use less othe other ingrediants

I was short 1 egg and knowing that the lack of egg would give me a more dense brownie I researched a bit hoping to come across a substitute that I had here at home, I used the 1 egg I had, and approx. 3 TBSP mayo, turned out perfect, you would never guess there was mayo in it at all. However I don't think I would use this substitution on anything other than brownies or chocolate cake....but you never know....

How can you prevent brownies from getting hard around the edges?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you find that your brownies are getting hard around the edges before they get done in the middle, then you are probably baking your brownies at too high of a temperature. Try lowering your oven about 25 degrees. (If your recipe calls for 375, lower it to 350.) You may have to add a little to the baking time, but the lower temperature will help your brownies to bake more thoroughly and evenly.

How to make chocolate brownies with no chocolate?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This is can happen as I have a brownie recipe which does not use any chocolate at all! instead it just uses cocoa powder. This is really handy and useful as it saves time when melting the chocolate and buying loads of it! They turn out really well and are great tasting! It's from the 'usborne farmyard tales childrens cookbook' it has over twenty recipes including the chocolate brownies and is only £7.99! If you search for the cookbook you should be able to find it and you might even get a better deal! I hope this helps and the chocolate brownies are nice! If you want me to tell you the recipe from the book so you don't have to buy it just say so on my wall! Many thanks! Eastenders_fan_4_Eva Xxxxx

How long does it take to cook brownies at 500 degrees?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This could vary depending on a few things. But in general, using a 9 x 7 or a 11 x 9 baking dish, and if the casserole is not frozen, it should bake in about 40 minutes, or until the center of the dish is bubbling hot. But if the casserole is frozen, then it will take at least an hour (some casseroles can be made ahead of time, frozen, then baked).
