Frequently Asked Questions

What Makes a Brownie a Brownie?

From the traditional chocolate brownie to mint brownies to bourbon brownies, there are all different kinds of brownie variations out there. But what exactly is it that makes a brownie a brownie?

In order to for a brownie to be considered a brownie, it should contain these classic ingredients:

• Chocolate

• Butter

• Sugar

• Eggs

• Flour

What Makes a Brownie Fudgy?

To make the absolute best brownies from scratch, you first need to learn how to make them fudgy. 

For a brownie to be super fudgy, it needs to have a higher fat-to-flour ratio. To achieve this, you need to add more chocolate and butter and go a little lighter on the flour. If you want cakey brownies, you will do the opposite. 

To get that fudgy texture, we suggest doubling the amount of butter (ie, a full stick versus a half stick) and doubling the amount of chocolate (ie, 6 ounces of chocolate versus 3 ounces). 

How Long will Brownies Last?

Of course, it would be nice if your brownies from scratch lasted for weeks and weeks so you could enjoy their gooey texture every day. 

Unfortunately, this is not the case. If you keep your freshly baked brownies in an airtight container (to prevent drying out), you can expect them to last 3 to 4 days. 

Whether you’re looking for a delicious dessert to serve at your next dinner party or just want to make something special for Father’s Day, these Chocolate Bourbon Brownies will hit the spot! 

The bourbon adds a little kick and extra layers of flavor that take these brownies to the next level. So go ahead and try them – we promise you won’t be disappointed!
