You Require -
Marie biscuits - 25 nos.
Unsweetened cocoa powder - 2 tbsp
Sweetened Condensed milk (I used Low fat Milkmaid) - 1/2 of the standard 400 gram tin
Unsalted Butter - 1 tbsp
Cashewnuts - 15 nos (chopped) - You can use combination of nuts like Hazelnuts or Pistachios. Just roast them before adding.
Raisins - 10 (optional)
Sugar - 2-3 tsp , powdered (optional)
How To -
- Break each biscuit into 4 and powder them finely in a food processor/electric mixer.
- Take the powdered biscuits in a bowl and add cocoa powder to this.
- Mix them well so that the cocoa flavor is evenly incorporated and well-blended together.
- Add powdered sugar at this stage. My hubby opined that the brownies are sweeter, so you may choose to omit the extra sugar (as the condensed milk already contains the required sweetness).
- Melt butter in a small pan and then slightly roast chopped cashewnuts.
- Stir in the cashews along with butter.
- Finally, pour condensed milk and mix well. This step requires some effort to make sure everything is combined well and the mixture is moist.
- Spread on a flat pan (so that you can make pieces easily, later) and refrigerate (do not freeze) for atleast 4 hours. It's advisable to use a baking sheet to line your tray.
- Stud raisins or tutty fruities at this stage, if you're like me :) This is purely optional.
- After 4 hours or more, cut into squares and enjoy these goodies

ReplyDeleteHey the recipe is so easy and also looks tempting. Just one Q - will it not get a candy effect if it is cooked and then hardened by refrigerating?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ramya! May I understand which step u refer to as cooking? We don't cook at all, just mix everything well and then refrigerate. Let me know how the brownies turn out! :-)
