She substituted raw sugar for the brown sugar, and mixed it into the butter while the butter was still melting, which I think started to caramalise it. Then she realised we had no eggs left - we'd just had omelets for dinner. "Mummy - what can I use instead of eggs?"
Well, a cake book I had said that a dssp of custard powder mixed with a tbsp milk makes an acceptable substitute for eggs - hmm.
OK - so the butter didn't combine with the flour, the sugar has all caramalised - but it is jaw-breakingly good. It has the brownie flavour, odd bits are chewy and the rest is like hard toffee.
YUM!!!
Oh yum! It looks delish! I have used apple sauce/puree before as a successful egg substitute. It works in cookies, presume it would work in brownies, not sure about a cake...
ReplyDeleteOooo yummy! Might have to try this too. I did try your spinach pie and I added sliced cookied sausages and fried the greens in the sausage pan. W said,"It looks yucky but tastes yum, Mum!"
