I cook but I don’t bake that much. When I do, I use the pre-made or pre-mixed kind – I know, not very healthy. I decided to treat my girls to some brownies. We see a new Pillsbury brownie mix that makes mini-brownies and it comes with 2 trays!
Louise is loving helping me in the kitchen these days so she definitely wants to help make brownies. I guess if I were making some kind of Goulash, she would be less inclined.
Yes, this seems retarded but I’m going to show you the steps on how to make pre-mixed boxed brownies. All the directions are on the box, just in case.
STEP 1
Preheat your oven to 350F. Pour the pre-mix flour pouches into a large mixing bowl.

STEP 2
Add 3 tablespoons of water.
This brownie mix is so simple. That’s it.
I’m guessing it’s not going to taste AS good though.
STEP 3
Spray the trays with some oil.
STEP 4
Spoon the mix into the trays.
Yes, that’s a pot holder that Louise made herself. Didn’t ever make these for your mom when you were a kid?
I used to make them at the daycare I went to and bring them home to my mom. I can totally empathize with her now when she told me one day she had enough. You just can’t use 6 potholders.
STEP 5
Bake in the oven for about 11-12 minutes.
Step 6
Serve and eat! Goes great with hot tea.
We’re drinking a very tasty and aromatic Persian fragrant Earl Grey black tea.
It’s quite addictive!
The girls like it but I think the brownies are just ok. Pillsbury’s recipe is just too dry. That’s what you get for not adding eggs or oil!
Anyway, this box only makes those 12 mini brownies, which is considerably less than a normal family-size box.
I recommend getting your own mini trays or keeping this and using a different brand of brownie mix- like Duncan Hines or Betty Crocker. They’re much more moist and yummy!
