![]() In a large bowl, combine melted butter (or coconut oil) with sugar. Combine all dry ingredients in a small bowl (flour through salt). Line a 13x9 OR 9x9 pan with foil coating in cooking spray. Enjoy your indulgence! At least it’s not from the box! You can also use fun sprinkles or other colorful candy toppers. Mini m&ms are ideal so they don’t get in the way of cutting, but didn’t have any luck finding them (ok I only checked one store) so I had to go with regular size m&ms. Honestly they are both great options! If you do go the thicker route, they are pretty darn rich, so cut them into small pieces (or don’t!). On the one hand they are easier to spread in the 9×9 pan and I do prefer thicker brownies, but on the other hand I liked the ratio of brownie to frosting in the thinner ones (the 13×9 pan).Īs you can see I am torn, so you do what you want to do. This brownie batter is thick so it’s difficult to spread in the 13×9 pan like the original recipe states (which is odd because I did it that way years ago) so I tried them in a 9×9 pan. I must be honest, I didn’t make them 100% dairy-free because I used regular chocolate chips because I don’t keep the others on hand. I cooked them the exact same amount on different days so it wasn’t like the oven was hotter for one batch. I am not sure if it was using the gluten free baking mix or the coconut oil, but they were a little more fudgey than the ones with all-purpose flour/butter. Interesting enough, my hubby and I preferred the gluten-free/dairy-free ones. Both brownies turned out great and I had a happy household over the weekend! Fast forward time, wow! I knew I wanted to make them again, but also wanted to try a gluten-free, dairy-free version so that I could write in those adaptations. The first time I tried this copycat recipe was about 3 1/2 years ago when we lived in Missouri. The ingredient lists are truly scary- that stuff can stay on the shelves for infinity! □ But I can bake from scratch!Īnd these were loved by everyone (although my kids would love a piece of cardboard dipped in chocolate). There is no way I’d buy these for my kids now. It’s a wonder I am still alive! □īut in defense to my parents, we did eat healthy too and I probably didn’t eat the junk as much as I think, but the junk sure is memorable. It’s actually comical to reminisce about the crap we ate as kids- TV dinners (oh man the salisbury steak and fried chicken were my favorite) and processed goodies like these. It’s hard to even narrow down what once were my favorites, but I’d say star crunch, nutter bars, zebra cakes, oatmeal creme pies would take the lead. So today’s recipe…a copycat recipe from these little treats.Ĭan we just talk about Little Debbie snacks for a minute? Every kid in the 80s had these little bad-boys in their lunches. And desserts are so much fun to photograph. #sorryImnotsorryĪnd it doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate making things a little healthier, I just don’t mind dessert calories because I don’t have often enough to worry about it. See me and my dessert….I like the real thing. I hardly have any dessert recipes on the blog! I don’t know why because I am a dessert lover.
