Taste Connections Brownies

TC-BROWNIE MIX - 350 G ( 3 ¼ CUPS)
CANOLA OR VEGETABLE OIL - ¼ CUP
VANILLA - 1 TSP
WATER- ¾ CUP + 2 TBS
Take 350 g (weighing is more accurate than measuring in cups) – which is approximately 3 ¼ cups of the mix. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla, ¼ cup oil and 3/4 cups of water. Beat vigorously with an electric mixer for 2 minutes. The batter should be of cake batter consistency. If not, add water, 1 tablespoon at a time and beat until you get a cake batter consistency. (3/4 cups may be adequate). You could either spread in a 9-inch square pan that has been sprayed with Pam or you could add to Pam-sprayed mini muffin pans (2/3 full for each depression). The batter should fill at least 24 mini muffin pans. Bake in a preheated 350 deg oven for 15- 22 minutes depending on which pan you are using for baking or when tested with a skewer it should have no sticky batter. Let sit in the pan for 3-4 mins before cooling on a wire rack.
NUTRIENT INFORMATION FOR THE WHOLE RECIPE
The Phe content for the whole recipe - 38.5 mg.
Protein content– less than 1 g
Phe content varies for each piece with how many squares you cut out if using square pan or how many mini muffins you bake.
The brownie can be decorated using store bought chocolate frosting – adding a thin layer on top to make frosted brownie. But add 56 mg of Phe per 100 g frosting. But when spread thinly it shouldn’t add more than 1 – 2 mg phe per muffin or per piece.
