ORANGE BROWNIES

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, melt butter. Stir in cocoa until smooth. In a large bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Without stirring, add the sugar, flour, pecans, orange juice concentrate, zest and salt. Pour cocoa mixture over the top; mix well. Transfer to a greased 8-in. square baking pan., Bake at 350° for 28-32 minutes or until edges begin to pull away from sides of pan. Cool completely on a wire rack. , For frosting, combine confectioners' sugar, butter and orange juice concentrate. Spread over the brownies. Cut into bars; garnish with orange zest if desired.

THE BEST FUDGY BROWNIES

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13-by-9-inch baking pan, preferably metal, with nonstick baking spray. Line the pan with parchment paper leaving a 2-inch overhang on the longer sides. Lightly coat with nonstick spray.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until the butter is a deep golden color, about 5 minutes; the butter will hiss and spit as the whey evaporates so be careful. As the foam subsides the butter will go from a canary yellow color to golden. When it does, take it off the heat. Add the chocolate and cream to the butter and let it sit, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted.
• Sift the flour and cocoa powder through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl. Beat the granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, vanilla, espresso powder and eggs in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Start on low speed and gradually increase to high speed until the eggs are pale, very thick and fluffy, about 8 minutes (start your timer when you get to high speed). Do not be tempted to skimp on the mix time; this step is key to getting the signature shiny, crackled brownie top. Reduce the speed to low and slowly pour the warm chocolate into the eggs; beat until completely incorporated. Gradually add the dry ingredients and beat until just combined; do not overmix. Use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl and fold until the batter is completely combined.
• Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until the brownies are glossy and just barely firm, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 205 degrees F, 25 to 35 minutes. Don't let the thermometer touch the bottom of the pan or you will get a much higher reading. (The cook time will be at the higher end of the range if using a glass or ceramic baking dish.)
• Let the brownies cool completely to allow the crumb to set before slicing, about 3 hours.
• Use an offset spatula to loosen the brownies from the sides of the pan. Use the parchment overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Remove the parchment and cut into 24 squares.

TRIPLE ORANGE FUDGY BROWNIES WITH ORANGE GLAZED PECANS

Steps:

• 1. Prepare you brownie mix and pour into a greased 9X13 pan
• 2. Blend the cream cheese, marmalade, powdered sugar, orange juice, vanilla together. Whisk your eggs in a separate bowl and then add to the mix. Blend well. Should be a creamier easy spreadable consistancy. Now pour that over the brownies mix and gently spread over the top to cover. Next, take your fudge sauce and drizzle on top of cream cheese mixture. I used a knife and spreaded it out over the top. Bake as directed at 350 degrees but check on it. It may take more time due to the layering.
• 3. Prepare your frosting and set aside. The frosting was harder to give you amounts because I just kept putting more tang until I got my desired color and taste. Also, you may want to put more or less powdered sugar too.
• 4. The pecans are extremely tasty but I burnt them to blackness the first batch trying to roast them. lol Seriously though, they are expensive and I told myself you have to eat those. lol....I started eating them and couldn't eat anymore because they were too burnt. Well, you take this mixture (except for pecans) and cook in in a pan till it comes to a boil. I cooked mine for a few minutes and then took it off the burner. But, you want to cook it longer till a syrup type texture. Maybe 8 to 10 minutes. Then, pour your 2 cups of roasted pecans into the glaze and mix thoroughly. Then place them on parchment paper and spread them out to dry.
• 5. Once you remove your brownies from oven let cool and then ice. Top with your orange glazed pecans.

TRIPLE-CHOCOLATE FUDGE BROWNIES

Steps:

• In a metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water melt the bittersweet chocolate and the unsweetened chocolate with the butter, stirring until the mixture is smooth, remove the bowl from the heat, and let the mixture cool until it is lukewarm. Stir in the sugar and the vanilla and add the eggs, 1 at a time, stirring well after each addition. Stir in the salt and the flour, stirring until the mixture is just combined, and stir in the chocolate chips. Pour the batter into a well-buttered and floured 13- by 9-inch baking pan, smooth the top, and bake the mixture in the middle of a preheated 350°F oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a tester comes out with crumbs adhering to it. Let the mixture cool completely in the pan on a rack and cut it into 24 bars.
