Make Lotus Brownies in Minutes with a Mix!
Here’s an incredibly simple Lotus Brownie recipe that even baking beginners can master without fail. Utilize a store-bought brownie mix to enjoy a sophisticated dessert at home, just like from a cafe. The contrast of a slightly crisp exterior, a moist interior, and the sweet caramel notes of Lotus biscuits is simply divine. (This recipe is based on the Bread Garden Original Mix. Recommended ingredient ratios may vary depending on your chosen mix, so please refer to the product instructions!)
Ingredients- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 pouch brownie mix
- 1-2 tablespoons sugar (optional, for adjusting sweetness)
- 140g unsalted butter, melted
- A handful of dark chocolate chips (optional, if not included in the mix)
- 12 Lotus Biscoff cookies
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In a bowl, combine the room temperature eggs, brownie mix, and optional sugar (if you prefer a sweeter brownie). Whisk lightly until no dry streaks of flour remain. Avoid overmixing, as this can lead to tough brownies.
Step 2
Pour in the melted butter and stir until the ingredients are fully combined and the batter is smooth and consistent. Continue mixing until you achieve a glossy batter.
Step 3
If your brownie mix does not contain chocolate chips, gently fold in a handful of dark chocolate chips using a spatula. Ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 4
Line a baking tray with parchment paper or create a frame by folding the edges. Pour the brownie batter evenly into the prepared tray.
Step 5
Use a spatula or offset spatula to smooth the top of the batter, creating an even surface. This step ensures uniform baking and a neat appearance.
Step 6
Gently place the 12 Lotus Biscoff cookies on top of the batter, spacing them evenly. Press them down lightly, just enough so they adhere to the surface without sinking too deep.
Step 7
Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) for 20-25 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with moist crumbs attached, indicating it’s perfectly baked. Be careful not to overbake, as it can become dry.
Step 8
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the baking pan for about 5 minutes to allow them to set slightly. Then, carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Cutting them while hot can cause them to crumble.
Step 9
Once the brownies have cooled down entirely, use a sharp knife to cut them into desired portions, following the lines of the Lotus cookies. You should get clean cuts.
Step 10
Congratulations! Your delicious Lotus Brownies are ready to enjoy. They pair wonderfully with a cup of coffee or a glass of milk. Savor your homemade sweet treat!
