Make Your Own Halloween Treat
Halloween is no longer a holiday for kids. Adults also are getting in on the action by dressing up and hosting parties. Americans spend $9 billion on Halloween items, including candy. Temptation (in the form of a candy dish) is everywhere. So pay extra attention to what you eat this month.
Rather than buy bags of candy, make your own treats. Try our easy-to-make, fiber-rich raspberry-brownie recipe. If you turn baking into a family activity, you'll set an example for your children or grandchildren by showing them you use and eat healthy ingredients. Enter your own fiber recipe in our fiber contest and you may win a $100 gift certificate to Williams-Sonoma®.
Fiber-rich Raspberry Brownies
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 13 x 9 inch baking pan with aluminum foil, allowing it to overhang the 2 narrow ends of the pan by about 2 inches. Grease the foil or coat with nonstick spray.
In a small saucepan over very low heat, melt:
- 12 oz. unsweetened chocolate, coarsely chopped
- 1 ½ C (12 oz.) unsalted butter.
Stir constantly until the chocolate melts. Remove at once from the heat. Beat until smooth. Cool to room temperature.
In a separate bowl, beat or whisk until well blended:
- 6 large eggs
- 3 C sugar
- 2 tsp. vanilla
Fold in the cooled chocolate mixture with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula. Sift over, and then stir to mix:
When just mixed, turn out into the pan.
Drop by teaspoonfuls evenly over the top:
Swirl with knife to distribute throughout the batter.
Bake on the middle rack for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Wait until completely cool to cut into bars.
Makes 24 2" x 2" brownies.
