Guest guest Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 I tried a new recipe today... supposed to be a cross between a brownie & a muffin... anyway, major major flop!!! The outsides are burned and the middles are gooey. (And yes, I used the temp specified, and the temp is right based on my oven thermometer.) I did sub Ener-G for the 4 eggs (it made 1 dozen muffins) - does subbing this many cause problems?? I've only ever subbed for 1 or 2 and didn't expect a problem, but it's the only thing I did different from the recipe, and I expected a better result from the recipe source! Supposed to be chocolate brownie muffins with mint chips put in the middle. Allthe mint chips sank to the bottom of the muffin cups and are solid. In any case, is there anything I can do with the gooey centers - scoop them into a bowl and do what?? They actually taste all right, but the sides are too firm to scrape out and are desperately stuck to the papers, and the top " corners " are burned and taste like it. :-( So much for surprising DH!

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 > scoop the insides onto ice cream, or fresh fruit??? Ah ha... I have a couple of pears I can use!! The mint chips all sank to the bottom so I can scoop out the insides without the mint (which as much as I like it might not go with pears...)... :-) Thanks, Jen!

Thank goodness for this group - I was so stuck on the fact that it didn't work (which hasn't happened to me in a long time) that I couldn't think of a thing! > he'll never know ... he'll be happy with whatever you come up with ! > =) Now that's definitely true!
