Found this who asked Baker's Edge to come up with a recipe and here is the wonderful combination of honey and mascarpone! Let's see, if you won't faint over this indulgent array of ingredients. The brownies are excessive enough but with the warm sauce it is even better! As if you could improve upon this awesome flavor. Update: 05/20/2008 A reviewer made these comments about the baking times. However, in a 9x13 pan, 45 minutes is way too long for them. I baked them for 30 minutes, and they were still slightly overdone around the edges. Next time I will bake them for 25 minutes. Ingredients:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour |
3/4 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup butter |
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate |
8 ounces mascarpone cheese |
6 tablespoons butter, softened |
1 2/3 cups sugar |
4 eggs |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 cup heavy cream |
7 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped into small pieces |
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped into small pieces |
3 tablespoons honey (mesquite honey is what is recommended) |
Directions:
1. BROWNIES:.
2. Preheat oven to 350ºF.
3. Spray the Baker's Edge pan(9x9 or 9x13 ) with non-stick cooking spray.
4. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.
5. Melt 1/2 cup butter with the chocolate.
6. Meanwhile, in the bowl of a mixer using a paddle attachment, beat the mascarpone, 6 tablespoons of softened butter, and the sugar until light and smooth.
7. Add the eggs to the cheese mixture one at a time and scrape the bowl thoroughly after each egg is added.
8. Add the vanilla and mix.
9. Add the melted chocolate and mix just until combined.
10. Finally, add the dry ingredients and mix slowly until just combined.
11. Pour into prepared pan and bake approximately 45 minutes or until toothpick is inserted and comes out clean.
12. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
13. NOTE: The brownies will rise during the baking process, but after being removed from the oven will collapse to normal height.
14. PREPARE THE SAUCE:.
15. Heat the heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat just until starting to boil.
16. Remove the pan from the heat and add both types of chocolate.
17. Let the chocolate sit a minute and then stir until completely melted; add honey.
18. Place brownie on plate and drizzle with sauce; then eat and enjoy!
