Brownies: This is very affordable yet an irresistible dessert for my kiddo

Hi there, dear ones!

I'd love to share with you our go-to food at every potluck for their school activities.

Children love this dessert, and it's the sweet that they can't really resist. It's brownies!

Nowadays, due to inflation, a brownie with the size of two matchboxes in the Philippines costs around 1 USD already.

My daughter loves brownies too, so she also requests this most of the time when there are special occasions.

So I look for ways to afford it without breaking the bank.

I also have limited baking machines, so I look for the ready-made brownies wherein I only use a fork to mix them.

And today is a special day for my daughter since she got an award for being on the honor roll for the first quarter. So I think it’s a simple treat for her.

Also, as a ritual in her school, parents would pledge food for a potluck.

I don't think of any food anymore since this is already affordable and very delicious for its cost.

Here are the ingredients:

2 medium-sized eggs
1/2 cup of cooking oil
1/4 cup of water
chocolate sprinkles (quantity depends on your preference)
1 box of ready-mix brownies (any brand, but I prefer White King)
1 Banana leaf (depending on the length of the pan)

Here are the easy steps:

1 Put the ready-made brownies in the bowl.
2 Add the eggs.
3 Pour the oil and water.
4 Mix the ingredients with a fork, but don't overmix.
5 Pour into the pan with a banana leaf since I ran out of parchment paper. This one is helpful.
6 Preheat the oven to 177 °C.
7 Bake for 25-30 minutes
8 Use a stick to check if it's already cooked. There shouldn't be any crumbs on the toothpick.

So here's the finish product. It's so chewy and fudgy. And most of all, I only spent roughly around 5 USD for the whole tray.

The brownies were gone too soon, since her classmates really liked them.

Congratulations to your daughters achievement, and true inflation in the Philippines now is high and seems all are pricey. Good thing you made your own chocolate brownies and it looks very tasty.

Yeah @ronimarie82 we have to be very practical. Thanks for dropping by.
