Chewy, fudgey and (most importantly) chocolatey, brownies are a perfect dessert. But they could always be even better! A classic brownie batter is the base for these incredibly fun, incredibly delicious baking projects. Make them for an afternoon with the family or as a homemade gift for any occasion.
Here are four of our favorite upgraded brownie recipes with toppings:
There’s something really special about brownies with toppings. The contrast between the chewy base and the smooth frosting makes them even more decadent. (You didn’t hear it from us, but frosting can also hide any imperfections in an overdone edge piece!) These easy topped brownies are triple the chocolate thanks to a creamy cocoa frosting and a sprinkling of HERSHEY’S Milk Chocolate Chips.
GET THE RECIPEYou’ve heard of warm brownies with a scoop of ice cream … get ready for brownies with an ice cream flavor! Inspired by the perfect blend of snacks in rocky road, these topped brownies boast a heaping helping of mini marshmallows, chopped peanuts and REESE’S PIECES Candy. Throw on some REESE’S Baking Cups to make it really extraordinary.
GET THE RECIPEThink outside the square! This recipe turns a pan of your favorite brownies into pops you can share. Melted HERSHEY’S Milk Chocolate Chips become the smooth outer shell.
