    That looks amazing ..why do you need to put in freezer before cooking ?

  • @dave9624
    @dave962412 күн бұрын

    Popping cookie dough in the freezer allows the fats to cool. As a result, the cookies will expand more slowly, holding onto their texture. If you skip the chilling step, you're more likely to wind up with hard cookie shell instead of lovely, chewy texture. Cookie dough thats chilled is also much more flavorful.

    I'm going to make this at the weekend for visitors. I lost my much loved recipe many years ago and stopped making it - goodness knows why I didn't just find another one! Anyway, this looks delicious and I'm hoping it will become my new favourite recipe 💛 May I ask a question please - if I were to make two cakes would it be better to make them separately or can I just double the ingredients? And if I cooked two in the same oven at the same time, would it take longer do you know please?

  • @KatBakingExplorer
    @KatBakingExplorer21 күн бұрын

    Hi, you can double the ingredients yes, but put them in two separate tins. You can bake them at the same time. I'm not sure if it would take longer, so after the baking time, check them with a thin skewer and give them longer if needed. I hope you enjoy the cake!

    It has a lot of sugar, can we reduce 300g sugar to half, so only 150g sugar?

  • @KatBakingExplorer
    @KatBakingExplorerАй бұрын

    Sugar does not only contribute to sweetness, it also helps to make cakes light and moist. Changing the amount dramatically will affect the result, but feel free to experiment.

    @@KatBakingExplorer certainly will. Could i ask, i don't do brownie or this kind of baking often as i love baking and trying different bread products yet have tried quite a few of your cake recipes successfully (thanks for recipes) if i wanted to do a twix brownie using mini twix, as well as adding the mini twix to the batter can i also lay them on top of the batter before baking or is it better to put them on top immediately after removing from oven? I am not sure of how the chocolate will react if placed on top before baking as only ever baked brownies with extras mixed in the batter

    I mean I used 1 baking pan as i never ever come to know how much batter goes per pan, every1 dont know only some people know, i used to use 2 pans but i tend to use extra batter in 1 pan an less in other an so i just use 1 pan, nowadays anyways its soooo much better to use 1 pan an soooo much less dishes to clean wen using 1 pan but even so my issue isnt resolved because even wen using 1 baking pan u must use certain amount of batter not more than that an not less than that so i dont know how much, people think everyone know or should know but not everyone know u need only certain amount of batter, so because i never came to know batter , i end up with either these , dipped/ sinked cakes and or cracked cake an or undercooked cake in centre
