Symphony Toffee Brownies
When you take a pan of fudgy brownies and fill them with milk chocolate toffee bars, the result is a batch of Symphony Toffee Brownies, one of the tastiest treats you’ll ever taste!!
I was heading to Colorado with 5 girlfriends and got an email asking whether I was bringing any baked goods. These brownies with toffee were already in the oven! We did a good job devouring the batch. Not a crumb came home.
This recipe comes from my friend, Diane Morrissey. She’s an extraordinary cook; check her out on Instagram. When I made these first in 2011, I had just purchased Bake! by Nick Malgieri, the baking guru. When trying to decide which brownie recipe to use for these Toffee Brownies, I went to Nick’s book and quickly decided on his Florida Brownies which are his take on Maida Heatter’s Palm Beach Brownies. They did not disappoint. If they aren’t rich enough for you, try adding a layer of chocolate bars in the middle. They’re definitely sublime.
But Diane’s version is even easier! She uses a box of Ghirardelli’s brownie mix which makes these rich uber chocolaty brownies a breeze to prepare!
The eggs, sugar, and vanilla are mixed for up to 10 minutes, so using a stand mixer is the best option if available. Make sure to scrape the bowl a couple of times during the process to make certain all the batter is beaten to the same consistency.
Since the chocolate bar in the center will be gooey when the brownies are done cooking, you cannot use the usual toothpick test to check whether your brownies are done. The 35-minute timing worked well for me in two different ovens.
Like with many fabulous brownie recipes, there is a very thin, crisp layer that shatters a bit when you cut these. Using a serrated knife to score them first will help a bit, but there’s really no way to get a perfect, clean cut with every slice.
PRO-Tip: Line your baking pans with non-stick foil. This ensures the brownies will not stick to the sides of the pan and also helps for easy removal for cutting after they’ve cooled.
