How do I keep my brownies moist and chewy?

[shortylickens]

Lard?
Butter?
Oil?

More importantly, how do I keep the top from drying out?

There are four main ingredients in just about any kind of cake: flour, eggs, sugar and fat. These ingredients have different effects on how your cake bakes and how your cake tastes.

The flour and eggs are the structure of your cake. If you make a cake that doesn't have eggs and flour then it won't have any structure meaning you'll have a pathetic cake that won't bake and rise correctly.

The sugar and the fat, two of my favorite things, are all about the taste of the cake. The more sugar and fat you have in a cake, the more moist the cake will be.

no matter what recipe you use for brownies, basically, if you think they are underdone, they are perfect. You can't check them like a cake. once a toothpick inserted comes out clean, it is already too late! Most box mixes tell you that when the brownie seems to pull away from the sides of the pan, they are done. do that and skip any other "test" and they will be most and tender.

Google "black bean brownies". Not only are they the best brownies you'll ever eat, but they're also very moist.

Seal em in a ziplock bag and suck out the air before you zip it up.
Ghetto vacuum packing works great to keep moisture in.

is this related to the "control when i poop" thread? cuz keeping your "brownies" soft and moist in that respect isn't that hard...

Is this not a troll thread? Losing ability to tell difference

Eat them right when they come out of the pan. Things like that never last long in my house.

I add a cup of Hershey's Chocolate Syrup to every batch does the trick big time....

If you mean after they've cooked and you're storing them, put them in a sealable container with a slice of bread.

nestles chocolate syrup is better, uses sugar, not corn syrup like hersheys.

Capture them fresh during a cookie drive, and don't store for longer than 1 week.

Applesauce.

Always undercook them a bit, cover them with foil immediately after removing from the oven.
As for the tops, while still warm, spread some Hershey's syrup thinly over them.

Always has worked for me.

I'll have to try this.

When you put them in a container for storage after you've made them, put a couple slices of bread in the container with them. the bread will dry out and the moister will be absorbed into the brownies until they are at equal levels.... works wonderful for cookies....
