Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Did You Know Unsweetened baking chocolate contains 50 to 58 percent cocoa butter. It's bitter in flavour and is used primarily in baking. Look for it in boxes in the baking aisle next to the chips.
  • Tip 2
    Storage Tip To keep brownies longer, wrap tightly, label and freeze up to 6 months.
