I tried Tasty's Fudgy Brownies Recipe



So i'm sure you've seen Tasty vids somewhere while you're scrolling through social media and probably was like , yea I would so try this when I get home. Then when you get home, you never do! I was like you once upon a time, until I actually tried one and i'm going to tell you all about it!

So I didn't follow the exact recipe (I substituted some stuff) but it definitely came out fudgy and chewy and nice, just like how brownies should be! Here's the Tasty vid and here's what I did to achieve a version of Tasty's fudgy brownies!

Ingredients:

3/4 cup of melted butter
1 cup of brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract/essence
1 cup of flour
1 teaspoon of salt
1/4 cup of cocoa powder
1 bar of chocolate (cut up into small chunks)

Other Things You'll Need:

A baking dish ( I used an 8" x 8" glass dish).
A knife (to cut up your chocolate).
Measuring Cups (if you're into precision).
A whisk (to mix everything together but, I cheated and used a hand-held mixer because I got tired of whisking, LOL).
1 bowl (some persons like to mix wet ingredients separately from dry ingredients but i'm a 1 bowl type of gal!).

The Process:


The first thing I did was melt the butter and attempted to melt some chocolate. Guys, don't laugh but you're not supposed to put glassware on direct heat ok..... not everyone knows that........so don't ever attempt it otherwise you'll get the shock of your life, maybe cry a bit and in the end still have to replace your mum's baking dish. Glad we had this chat.

Moving on....

So I put the melted butter into a bowl and added the brown sugar. Tasty's vid recommended 1 3/4 cups of granulated sugar, but I didn't have any so I substituted it with a cup of brown sugar. Since brown sugar is generally sweeter than granulated sugar, I used 1 cup of brown sugar (instead of 1 3/4 cups) because I didn't want the brownies to be too sweet, considering there would be chocolate chunks in there already.

Then, I added the eggs, and some vanilla essence, 1 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 cup of coca powder and the remaining chunks of chocolate I had after the whole melting chocolate attempt.

Results:

They tasted sooooooo yummy. So major thumbs up for that Tasty recipe! Since I whisked the mixture for some time then I used a hand-held electronic mixer after a while, mine came out a bit cakey to the top,
while the top supposed to have like a flaky-ish texture like the Tasty vid. But other than that, it was super fudgy and super chocolatey! Will definitely try it again!

Do you have a brownie recipe? If so lemme know what you used! I might try it sometime!

Dear Wanderlust, The Series Continues

" Travel makes you modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world, " - Gustav Flaubert. Dear Wanderlust, The series continues....... Meet Kelsey and her beautiful daughter! Last time your eyes were glued to this blog, you read about a daring, young woman who gave her life wings and travelled all the way to Spain from a tiny speck on the world map, known as Trinidad. Now moving there on your own is a whole experience in itself, but what if you moved with your immediate family too? Would that make you feel less homesick with them there? Let's find out in this interview with Kelsey, who moved to Vietnam - from Trinidad -  with her family. Yes, you read that correctly. V I E T N A M. 1. Location: Q.

Tutorial: DIY Emoji Piñata

I made a piñata for a family event and decided I should share the process with you guys! So here's a quick guide on how to make a piñata for yourself! Now I am by no means a professional DIYer, but at least I can say that I tried! You'll need: A pair of scissors Tape/ Glue Cardboard or any type of sturdy material for the piñata itself Treats/Goodies Tissue/Kite/Crepe Paper (any paper of your choice) Step 1: Prep Cut the cardboard into two circles and some strips for the sides. The size of the circles depends on how large you would like the piñata to be. Similarly for the strips, the length depends on the circle's size. You'd have to make sure that the strip/s can go around, just about the entire circle. You'll see why a little further down. Read on! Step 2: Making the Frame   Now you'd have to tape up the strip for around the circle. A trick is to tape the cardboard strip up on the sides first (vertically) so that i

Just Snap Out Of It

"What's on your mind?" That's the infamous Facebook prompter for users to update their status. But, what's really on your mind? Would Facebook - and all who follow you - really like to know what's on your mind? If you haven't guessed it already, this post is about mental health. I know, it's early in a New Year and this is a heavy topic but it must be talked about. My little random blog is probably not going to make such a drastic change in the world but i'll be sure to discuss real issues and somehow influence you guys in some way to feel comfortable enough to share your thoughts with someone. It's healthy - contrary to the way we were raised, right? In some way, speaking about how you felt was taboo. I remember my first panic attack. I was seventeen and in a classroom on my laptop. We didn't have a scheduled class at that time, so I think I was playing a game. All my classmates were in their worlds doing whatever and I just
