The Brownie Project

Sofia enjoys baking.  I enjoy snacking on homemade goods.

... and since we had a chocoholic guest, my friend Tiana, we decided to try out the Betty Crocker Fudge Brownie Mix. We really love the Betty Crocker Chocolate Chip Cookies so I wanted to try the brownies.

I am completely sold on Betty Crocker mixes... they are as easy to make as 1-2-3 and they taste really good (for the minimal effort) too.

You just need to put in oil.
(I used Olive because we ran out of Veggie Oil)

and Water...

1 Egg...

Mix around 50 times.

I helped a little, but the recipe says expect lumps.

I didn't realize that my pan would be too big.
One pouch is for an 8x8 square inch pan while mine was 9 inches.

We baked it for less time instead.

It came out quite nice.

Sofia was concentrating on cutting up her brownies.

It was a tad over-baked but it was nice and chewy.
It was so addictive, it was all gone in a few days.

After snacking on brownies, Sofia went down to play (and burn all the sugar she consumed!).

Sofia said this is what teacher calls the thinking look.

We found a lone flower that matched her shirt so Sofia was trying to pose beside it.

Complete with fake smile.

A close-up of the flower.

Sofia likes playing around our condo grounds.

And looking at the fish.

Thinking look again.

I think we're going to miss the simple things like this. Just Saying.
