Gourmet brownies that are made in homes or served in restaurants can be decadent. They are regarded as chocolaty desserts in many cases, but among children, they are popular as treats.
But why go to a restaurant when you are able to make delicious brownies at home. You can start from the scratch or you can buy some brownies mix at the supermarket and with a few extra ingredients, you can transform them into sumptuous gourmet brownies. Since, brownies are considered as high calorie food items, you can play a trick at home. With slight adjustments, you can adjust the recipe and transform gourmet brownies into more nutritious and lower in fat. And, without sacrificing taste or texture.
When making brownies at home, look around your kitchen and find extra ingredients and flavorings that will add to the delicious taste of your chocolate brownies. For example, look for semi-sweet chocolate chips, instant coffee or almond extract. If you wish to make this more nutty or in some special flavor, look for nuts, coconut milk or shredded coconut. This is not it because you can really go experimental with gourmet. Try mint extract, thin mint cookies, orange liqueur, peanut butter or even fresh berries. They will make some unique brownies according to your taste.
You may not be able to get all types of gourmet in the market therefore, customize them at home. Keeping brownies fresh is also important because, they spoil after a certain point of time. However, they are not as perishable as vegetables and fruits. Interestingly, you can also control the perishable factor while making gourmet brownies. You just have to make them more dry than usual. Add more nuts and dry them before storage. Wrapping them in air-tight thin cling sheets will keep your gourmet fresh for days and even weeks. Keep Gourmet brownies in the freezer to make them last even longer.
