The recipe for a chocolate dessert called brownie (literally “brown” in English) was developed by a pastry chef commissioned by his employer and the owner of the hotel.

Brownie

The composition included walnuts, and the crust was smeared with apricot jam (like Sacher and many pies of that time) - the fruity sourness enlivened the simply chocolate taste. The dough for this cocoa-containing ancient miracle (one of the most popular in the world) can be completely different in composition, and ready-made brownies - the texture is like fondant, muffin, cookies, cupcake and even cake. Fudgy (live) they are called when the crust is crunchy and the middle flows out when broken. There is little flour, a lot of chocolate. Cakelike - like a cake, tender, sponge-like, melting. Chewy - similar to fudgy, but in this homemade recipe for this sweet there are a lot of eggs, so it is more like a toffee candy inside. Because of this consistency, the taste of cocoa here is the brightest and richest. To bake this “chocolatey”, you need to knead the dough, pour it into a perfectly rectangular shape and cut it into squares. They can be made in the form of sandwiches with cream or ice cream, whipped egg whites and meringue, pour glaze on top, decorate with nuts, berries, powdered sugar. Brother - blondie. The principle is the same, but the dough is white. It comes with white chocolate, nougat, nuts and berries, pumpkin puree. Vegan versions of all types of this sweet are made with banana, avocado and even beets.
