how to level up boxed brownies #brownies #boxedbrownies

You threw in that vanilla like the two shots of vodka lady 😆 Looks delicious!

Half oil half butter. Butter hardens when cooled but adds fantastic flavor the oil will keep brownies or cakes moist

Those are good and all but here's the way I've found makes them incredible.
Substitute water for milk
Substitute oil for melted butter
use 2 egg yolks per 1 egg
a little vanilla bean paste
A little instant coffee (maybe half teaspoon)
pinch of salt
chocolate chips if it doesn't already have them
tablespoon of cocoa powder

"And now we're gonna add two shots of vodka"

That looks fantastic. The melted butter is amazing, but if you just brown it a little before pouring it into the mixture, he'll taste a delicious nutty flavor more than usual.

I cannot stress this enough, specifically for pillsbury brownie mix, SALT. It's like pure sugar and there's no depth of flavour in it to me. Salt compliments chocolate just as much as coffee, add a little, don't overdo it, trust me on this, it helps.

Instead of chocolate chips I add caramel pieces. I call them my NSFW brownies because my coworkers have a hard time talking afterwards because the caramel gets stuck in their teeth and my job depends a lot on talking.

• Brown your butter and add 1 tsp of espresso powder while it cools down
• 1 tsp of GOOD vanilla
• Use milk, half and half, or buttermilk instead of water

[MisunderstoodPupil]

I’m so happy you spoke on the Keith Lee situation the way that you did. It was a very mature response to it. I hope for the same 🙏🏾

[MsAshley_]

Definitely trying these for my sweetie for Valentine's day! Thank you!

[jestermacao]

I’m seeing a lot of tips here. Gonna bake a brownie tomorrow 😊

5 stars for using a spatula to add every bit of the butter, or any liquid ingredient to the mix.

[jasminjayy]

Just made these and it came out delicious, will be making these for Christmas!

Pro tip; melt the chocolate chips with the butter … bam fudgier more chocolatey brownies

[teeandkids]

I do this too with cupcakes but I also question why I do because let’s be real we might as well just make it from scratch once we change everything but I’ve convinced myself it’s easier 😂😂

[TrueCrime.and.DeathMetal]

Butter can dry out brownies, so proceed with caution. But I highly recommend the coffee sub

[sipsinsilence]

I ALWAYS add in a couple shakes of salt to make it taste homemade, the way my mother always made hers. Gotta try this tho. But with the salt

[DarkNeko]

butter scotch chips change the game entirely.

I remember we (my cousins and me) thought my grandma had this secret brownie recipe. They were so good and gooey. Years later found out they were boxed brownies that weren’t cooked alll the way. Still can’t make them like she did thou
