Biscuit Brownie

A no baking biscuit brownie.  That even a kid can make.  And so we made B make it.  And it turned out yummy.  Recipe is from Edible Garden and she even has step by step pictures.

Ideally give four or more hours of refrigeration.  And if you do not have the patience, a two hour wait will also do.  You will get nice chewy brownies rather than stiff ones.  Makes no difference to the taste.  But if you wait, you will get better pictures.


Ingredients:
Marie Biscuits - 20 nos
Cocoa unsweetened - 3 tbsp
Cashew/Almond mix - 1/4 cup - roasted - any nut will do
Condensed Milk - 200 gms ( which is roughly half a tin)
Instant coffee powder - 1 tsp ( optional)

You can add 2 tsp of sugar if you would like it sweeter (optional) - not really necessary

Take a bowl.
Powder the Marie Biscuits.  Allow a few coarse pieces too.  Adds to the crunch
Add the cocoa powder and the coffee powder.
Mix well.  If you are adding the sugar do it here.
Dry roast the nuts of your choice. And make into small pieces.
Add this to the mixture.
Now slowly pour in the condensed milk.  Keep mixing - with a spoon
It will be a slow mix since the mixture is sort of a wet solid.  Make sure all ingredients are blended well.

Line a bowl/tray with greased paper.
Pour in the mixture.
With slightly moist fingers, press down the mixture and level it.

Keep in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours.  Or overnight if you can resist taking a bite.

Cut into pieces.  It will not last long.  So I honestly do not know the shelf life.  But if refrigerated I guess it will keep for at least 10 days.

    1. She will love it and since she tinkers in the kitchen, maybe she can make it on her own.

  17. I know what you mean about getting better photos if you keep these in the fridge for more than 2 hours, recently I made chocolate barfis along the same line and had the same problem :-) But I can never wait for that long....bwt the brownie looks good :-)
