How much should a pan 13 x 9 of brownies cost to make?
I was wanting to make Beth's cream cheese brownies. It calls for 12oz of bittersweet chocolate (I think this is the same thing as unsweet chocolate). 4 0z cost over 2 dollars, that's over 6 dollars for just that one ingredient.
TIA

What kind of bittersweet chocolate does it call for specifically?
Generally, bittersweet is the same thing as dark chocolate so if you are just melting it, you can buy bags of Hershey's dark chocolate chips (I think they are 10 oz bags) for less than buying chocolate squares.

Sacrilege, I know - but I always use a box mix (Ghirardelli) for the base to all my brownie recipes. Plus, I always bake them in cupcake paper (preferably parchment tulip papers).

I have seen bittersweet chips in the store. I know for one recipe I have 6 ounces is equal to 1 cup of chips. So you would need 2 cups of chips?!

I needed a mix and my local grocery didn't carry the Ghirardelli, so I got a Betty Crocker. Blech! I used to make Betty brownies all the time - but once you Ghirardelli - you never go back! LOL |
