As I still have 2 more cans of DDL sitting in the cupboard, I am looking for some recipes to try out and saw the photo of DDL brownie posted by one of the mum forum's member. I surf net to get the recipe and there were many bloggers tried this DDL brownie and raving about it tat made me decided that I must bake it. Thanks aquariusgal for sharing.
Since I have coconut flakes left from my previous bake of coconut cream cake, I decided to add 1 cup into the brownie. As I was afraid that the brownie will be too sweet, I reduced the sugar to 150g. I do not have a square cake pan so I used 8" round cake pan instead.
Recipe from The Sweet Life in Paris by David Lebovitz which can be found here.
Verdict?
The brownie is moist, rich and chocolately, sweetness just nice for me. I can tasted the crunchy coconut flakes during each bite and I felt so satisfied when biting into DLL, so sinful yet so heavenly! I cannot stop at just one slice but I had to control in order not to grow my size to be like a house :P. Well, I still ate 3 slices in total, luckily the brownie finished fast by my family and friends or else I will eat more hee hee hee... The brownie was gone within a day, this shown how good it is, definately a keeper.
Coconut brownies with dulce de leche...wow...all the goodness in just one cake!

ReplyDeleteHi Jess
ReplyDeleteMy friend said choc burn easily shd I be melting them using dbl boiler instead of direct from saucepan as per the recipe? Haha sorry I only hv the exact amt of choc and if I did any mistake I wont have back up! ;)
Hi Xris, if you use very low heat, watch carefully and stir the chocolate there wont be any prob. However if you are not comfortable of using direct boiling, you may use double boing.
