Baking Tip #2 - Crunchy Top on Brownies

The Awesome brownies I made a few posts ago had a fabulous crust on them, which I love, because its beautiful and adds an extra dimension to the brownies. So when I stumbled upon this, I got excited and wanted to share it with you. Enjoy!

We consulted one of our favorite cookbooks, BakeWise, and found that this crispy top crust is actually a layer of meringue. That's right - whipped egg whites and sugar! It happens in recipes where the the butter and sugar are creamed together and then the eggs are added. The more the mixture is beaten once the eggs are added, the more prominent this crust.

If you're like us and you love the crispy top, just beat the batter as much as possible after adding the eggs and before adding any other ingredients.
