About Brownie Cake with Raspberry Sauce Recipe
Most cookbook websites have written that they have the best recipes with brownies, “the ultimate” dish, or other #1 place like. I won’t tell you that this brownie cake is the best on the internet, but I’ll let you decide if it is. As you know, I like to play with ingredients until I get a perfect recipe, with a balanced taste that remains in your mind.
I prepared 15 cakes until I got the ideal combination for this recipe. The recipe for Raspberry Sauce was from a cook friend, perfectly matching these tasty brownies. Like any respectable chef, I make my own recipes, but I also use good ideas from others to make a perfect dish for the tastes of my customers. Returning to the Brownie cake with Raspberry Sauce Dessert, after you finish it you can add fresh raspberries for garnish, giving an awesome design.
The History of Brownies
The history of Brownies is vast and is not 100% known. The first-known write of “brownie” is in a dessert that appeared in 1896, in a Boston Cooking-School Cook Book by Fannie Farmer, in reference to molasses cakes baked individually in tin molds. However, Farmer’s brownies did not contain chocolate and were half of the brownies from our days.
According to Wikipedia, in 1899, the first-known recipe was published in Machias Cookbook. They were called “Brownie’s Food”. The recipe appears on page 23 in the cake section of the book. Marie Kelley from Whitewater, Wisconsin created the recipe. The earliest-known published recipes for a modern style chocolate brownie appeared in the Home Cookery (1904, Laconia, NH), Service Club Cook Book (1904, Chicago, IL), The Boston Globe (April 2, 1905 p. 34),[3] and the 1906 edition of Farmer cookbook. These recipes produced a relatively mild and cake-like brownie.
Why prepare this dessert instead of any other?
Well, there is no special thing about it, only it can be prepared very fast, and the taste is very good & sweet. Moreover, the raspberry sauce, cocoa & vanilla flavors are perfectly combined to get the most out of the brownie’s tastiness.
Should the brownie cake be kept in the refrigerator or at room temp?
You can do how you wish and like, both being ok for the brownie. However, if you prepare the cake entirely, the refrigerator is the best choice, but if you want to make the brownie in advance, keeping it at room temperature will remain soft and chewy, almost as if it just came out of the oven. Be aware that if you keep the brownie at room temperature, it will have the same taste for up to 4 days, not more. In the refrigerator, it can be kept alone or as a cake (following the full recipe’s steps) for up to 5-6 days.
Notes and Tips
- Essential Equipment: 9-inch round pan or 8-inch square pan; small saucepan (about 1-quart size).
- If using margarine or spread, make sure it contains at least 65 percent (%) vegetable oil. Spreads with less fat are not recommended for baking.
- For easier cleanup, heat the margarine in a microwavable mixing bowl on High for 30 to 45 seconds until it is melted, then add the remaining ingredients for the cake.
