red velvet brownies

assalamu'alaikum wrm wbt
bismillahirrahmanirraheem..


semasa saya di tanah haram, blog ini disekat
cik abe kata nak suruh tumpu kepada ibadah semata..

pabila pulang, masih begitu juga.
langsung hilang segala. terasa gelap seketika..
segala perkongsian dirasakan sia2
tertanya2 apakah hikmahnya..

selepas 3 hari berhibernasi, saya cuba lagi
alhamdulillah.. teruja seketika pabila nampak kaabah!
post terakhir sebelum berangkat ke tanah suci

brownies ni buat bila anak2 sedara datang isnin yang lalu..
bakinya dibawa ke opis keesokan harinya..
tapi kesempatan utk post cuma datang semalam..
namun, bila cuba publish post .. hanya keluar tajuk.
apakah itu tanda2 blog ini harus dibiarkan saja??

sila klik link diatas untuk resepi frosting.
saya cuma tambah adunan creamcheese (creamcheese + gula + telur) dan marblekan diatas brownies.

red = love

• 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 oz red food coloring (this is one small bottle or a scant 2 tbsp)
• 2 tsp pure vanilla extract, divided
• 1/2 cup (8 tbsp) unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 tsp salt <-- saya tak letak since guna salted butter
• 1/4 tsp baking soda + 1/2 tsp vinegar <-- saja tambah

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour an 8″x8″ baking pan.
2. In a small bowl, slowly stir together the cocoa powder, food coloring, and 1 tsp vanilla into a thick paste until no lumps of cocoa remain. Set aside.
3. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the remaining 1 tsp of vanilla. With the mixer off, add in the cocoa mixture, then turn the mixer to medium and beat the two mixtures together until they are one uniform color. Slowly add in the flour and salt and mix on medium-low speed, just until combined. Do not overmix.
4. Remove the bowl from the mixer and stir up the batter with a rubber spatula once or twice just to ensure all of the flour has incorporated from the sides of the bowl and there isn’t anything stuck on the bottom of the bowl. You’ll want one uniformly colored (red) batter. ++ add the soda+vinegar and mix evenly. 
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center of the brownies. ++ add cream cheese mixture on top and swirl with knife .
6. Allow brownies to completely cool in the pan on a baking rack before cutting.
