Tips to make the perfect rolo brownies?
Here are some tips to make the perfect Rolo-shaped brownies:
- Use good quality chocolate: The chocolate you use will affect the taste and texture of your brownies. I recommend using semi-sweet or dark chocolate (under 60% cocoa) for the best flavour.
- Don’t overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough and dry brownies. Mix just until everything is well combined, but don’t overdo it.
- Don’t overbake the brownies: Overbaking the brownies will make them hard and dry. Bake them until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, but not wet batter.
