What’s In Snoop Dogg’s Brownies?
Snoop’s brownies are based on chocolate chips, which is a nice departure from chopping fancy chocolate and almost as easy as a cocoa powder brownie. He also calls for the usual suspects like flour, salt, vanilla, eggs, and butter, and adds in a couple of outliers like a touch of baking soda and milk.
How Do You Make Snoop Dogg’s Brownies?
The method is a little different from most brownies I’ve made. Snoop has you combine the milk, butter, and sugar in a saucepan and bring it to a boil, then remove it from the heat and stir in some of the chocolate chips, but not all. Once that’s melted, you stir in the eggs and vanilla, followed by the flour, baking soda, and salt. (And no, you don’t really need a mixer here. A spoon and/or a whisk will do just fine.) Before it goes into the oven, you sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips over the top.
How Do They Taste?
I’ll tell you that in a second. First, I want to tell you what a beautiful brownie this is! They’re lighter in color than most brownies but have a gorgeous shiny and crackly top that’s punctuated by dark chocolate chips. Just lovely.
But more importantly, they taste amazing. Everyone in the studio who tried them loved them and was pretty surprised at just how good they were. The texture is beautifully fudgy with a flavor that doesn’t hit you over the head with chocolate. Rather, the overall chocolate flavor is a little muted but then you get pockets of melty sweet chocolate chips which get you right to the chocolate level you want. You get more variation that way… it’s a brownie that’s far from being one note. Way to go, Snoop!
