(Food-Beverage-News.Com, December 07, 2015 ) Taylor, MI -- Each year on December 8, brownie lovers across the nation celebrate National Brownie Day. A cross between a cookie and a cake, brownies are popular all across the country.
The brownie originated in Chicago in the late 1800's. There was a request for a dessert for a group of ladies that would be attending a fair. They wanted a small cake-like dessert that could be eaten from a boxed lunch. A Chicago chef, working at the Palmer House Hotel, created the first brownie for the ladies, it featured an apricot glaze and walnuts. The Palmer House Hotel still serves the original brownies.
There are three myths regarding the creation of the brownie that have gained popularity over the years: o A chef accidentally added melted chocolate to biscuit dough. o A cook forgot to add flour to the batter. o A housewife did not have baking powder and improvised with this new treat. The story tells that she was baking for guests and decided she would serve them these flattened cakes.
There are thousands of recipes for both cake and fudge type brownies. Either is perfectly correct—and delicious. And while brownies are typically baked in a 7, 8 or 9 inch square pan, they can also be baked in silicone baking cups.
