Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1/4 cup Kahlua
- 1/4 cup vodka
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with butter or line with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, Kahlua, and vodka. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated, ensuring no dry ingredients remain.
- Fold in the chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the brownie batter. The chocolate chips will add extra richness and texture to the brownies.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula to create a uniform layer.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. To check doneness, insert a toothpick into the center - it should come out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove the brownies from the oven and let cool completely in the pan for about 30 minutes. The cooling process allows the brownies to set and makes cutting easier.
- Once cooled, use a sharp knife to cut the brownies into 12 equal squares.
- Before serving, dust the brownies with powdered sugar using a fine mesh sieve for an elegant finish.
- Serve at room temperature and optionally garnish with a small drizzle of Kahlua for extra flavor.
Tips
- Use room temperature ingredients for smoother mixing and better texture.
- Don't overmix the batter - this can lead to tough brownies.
- For extra moisture, you can add a tablespoon of sour cream to the batter.
- Use a toothpick test to ensure perfect doneness - a few moist crumbs are ideal.
- Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting for clean, precise slices.
- For an extra touch of elegance, serve with a small shot of Kahlua on the side.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- For a more intense flavor, you can increase the Kahlua slightly, but be careful not to make the batter too wet.
