These brownies are so chocolate-y good! We made them for our friend, Eric, who loves chocolate!
serves 18 (4 points)
1 box Betty Crocker low-fat fudge brownie mix ( for a 13 x 9 pan size)
1 egg
1 T. canola oil
1/2 c. water
1 c. no sugar added cherry pie filling
Frosting:
3 T. light stick butter
1-1/2 c. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
3 T. baking cocoa
pinch of salt
1/4 c. cold coffee
Whisk together brownie mix, egg, oil and water until well mixed. Stir in cherry pie filling. Transfer to a 13 x 9 pan coated with cooking spray and bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes. Cool completely.
For frosting, beat ingredients until well blended. Spread over cooled brownies.

ReplyDeleteKristen,
ReplyDeleteI am sorry your frosting did not turn out well. It could be anything from weather to elevation where you live. I would say, add the coffee only as needed next time. You may just start with a tablespoon or two. Also make sure your butter is slightly softened, but not melted.
I am glad you liked the brownies. You will have to let me know what else you try and if you like it.
I zapped the butter in the microwave, and it was partially melted.. I was afraid that could be the reason. That's okay - I popped them in the frig so that the icing would harden some. Seriously though, they are SO delicious. I'm having to refrain from going to get another!!
