Barb’s Royal Brownies

Chewy, chocolatey, a hint of smokiness, and just a bit of kickin’ spice. Absolutely great with some of my homemade Neapolitan ice cream.

Instructions

Note: Make sure your smoker is sitting on level ground so that your brownies cook consistently throughout.
Fire up your smoker for 275 F. You can also use a grill, cooking over indirect heat.
Melt the butter and chocolate in a small saucepan over medium heat. Pour into the bowl of a mixer.
Add the sugar, flour and cayenne.
Turn mixer on medium and add the eggs, one at a time.
Add the vanilla and continue blending until well blended.
Spray a 9″ x 13″ aluminum pan with non-stick spray.
Pour in the brownie mixture.
Smoke for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the brownies comes out clean.

Brownies. Pretzels. Nutella. You don’t really need to say any more about these little Nutella pretzel brownies. They’re a bit sweet. And a bit salty. And a bit nutty. They’re really, really good. The pretzels also add a nice crunchy outside, and the fudge brownies have a smooth, tender chocolately inside. Great for a crowd. Well, if you can keep people eating too many of them that is!

I have to admit, Nutella’s rather addicting. It was tempting to not lick the spoon while frosting these Nutella pretzel brownies. It took all of the energy I had to stop myself.
