Do you ever just get a craving for something? I had a huge craving for brownies the other day. I hadn’t had one in forever, and I wanted toffee in them. So I made a batch and made them extra chocolaty and topped with yummy toffee bits.
My son is still raving about them a week later. These are ridiculously simple, but so good. I actually did not make these from scratch, but instead I doctored up a couple packages of brownie mix.
I had a couple of packages of the smaller brownie mixes for an 8 x 8 size pan. I combined the two of them and doubled the typical ingredients, and then I added extra water to make them more “cake like.” I quadrupled the water in the recipe. For one mix it called for 2 tablespoons, so 2 mixes would have been 1/4 cup, but I added 1/2 cup of water.
Then, I added a cup of semi sweet chocolate chips to the batter. I think dark chocolate chips would have been a good addition as well, and I had planned on using them instead. But, I was out of dark, so semi sweet it was. After I spread the brownie batter out in the pan, then I just poured and entire bag of chocolate toffee bits all over the brownies and set them to bake.
At 25 minutes, they were still a little jiggly in the middle, so I put them in for 5 more minutes. At 30 minutes, they were no longer jiggly. We let them cool for about an hour before I cut into them, and they were just perfect. They stayed moist and delicious for days.
