Mailable Brownies Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 and 1/2 sticks of unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
- 2 cups of sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 and 1/4 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup of chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan with butter and line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- Gradually mix in the flour mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval until smooth. Allow the chocolate to cool slightly.
- Fold the chocolate into the batter until well combined. If using walnuts, fold them in at this stage.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from the oven and let cool completely in the pan.
Mailing Tips:
- Cut the brownies into small squares or rectangles to make them easier to mail.
- Wrap each brownie individually in plastic wrap or aluminum foil to prevent them from breaking or getting damaged during transit.
- Place the wrapped brownies in a sturdy box or envelope to prevent them from moving around during shipping.
- Consider using a shipping material like bubble wrap or packing peanuts to cushion the brownies and prevent them from getting crushed.
- Make sure to follow your local post office's guidelines for shipping baked goods and check with them for any specific regulations or restrictions.
Tips for Receiving:
- When receiving the brownies, gently remove them from the wrapping and packaging to prevent damage.
- Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- If you're not planning to consume the brownies immediately, consider freezing them for up to 2 months. Simply thaw at room temperature or in the refrigerator when you're ready to enjoy.
I hope this recipe and mailing tips help you send delicious brownies to your loved ones!
