Step 1. Gather the ingredients
Brownie Mix
1/4 cup oil
1/4 cup water
1 egg
1 pack Tim Tams
Step 2. Combine all ingredients (except Tim Tams)
- Oops! ‘Scuse fingers. No shell please
Step 3. Spread a layer of brownie goo in a pan
- Hmm…. maybe I should have used 2 packs of brownie mix
Step 4. Mmmmm Tim Tams
Wishing I’d bought 2 packs of Tim Tams. 1 and a bit for brownie testing, some for eating
Step 5. Cover with more brownie goo
It becomes rapidly apparent I needed more brownie goo, and there was going to be precious little left in the bowl for me to lick
Step 6. Cook for 30 minutes at 190C
Step 7. Lick the bowl
Yummmmmmmmo
Step 8. It’s done when a skewer comes out clean, then cool in the pan for 15 minutes
Ouch! I burned my mowf on the skewer
Step 9. Remember that you should have used baking paper to line the tin
Dammit! Wonder if I can stick it back together with the fudge?
Step 10. Try drowning it in faux cream to see if that helps
The good news is…. because it’s faux cream, logic declares it’s full of faux calories
VERDICT: Tim Tam brownies are not as nice as they sound. Apart from all the cooking problems that may have been related to my lack of skills – the chocolate melts, but the biscuits stay hard. In fact the biscuits get harder. Maybe if you crushed the biscuits up, or soaked them in something for an hour or two first… but I think you’d be better off making brownies AND having Tim Tams.
