As Valentine’s Day approaches, why not whip up something sweet for your sweetheart? Lucky for you, the bakers at Luv’s Brownies have a recipe that everyone will love: the brownie cone.
Here’s how to whip up your own version of the sweet treat. And, if you’d like to browse more baked goodies and leave it to the pros, we totally get that, too.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup butter
- 2 eggs
- 4 ounces of unsweetened chocolate
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup white sugar
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Dash of baking soda
- 4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons softened butter
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cup confectioner’s sugar
Recipe
- Preheat the oven to 300º. Use Wilton bite-size heart-shaped baking tins. Spray tins with Pam High Heat Baking Spray.
- Melt butter in a large saucepan or microwave. Combine and blend sugar and eggs. Combine butter, chocolate flour, salt, and baking powder.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes. Let cool.
- To make the frosting, soften butter in the microwave, combine confectioner’s sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla in a bowl. Stir until smooth.
