WHAT IS A ' BROWNIE '

A ' Brownie '  is  square or bar of very rich chocolate cake,  small flat sweet cakes.
A chocolate brownie is a flat, baked square or bar introduced in the United States at the end of the nineteenth century and popularized in both the U.S. and Canada during the first half of the twentieth century. The brownie is sliced from a type of dense, rich chocolate cake, which is, in texture, like a cross between a cake and a cookie.  Brownies come in a variety of forms.
It is a cake like and baked in a cake pan, the brownie is classified as a bar cookie rather than a cake. There are thousands of recipes, both “cake” types and “fudge” types.
The brownie got its name from its dark brown color.
Few stories about the origin of Brownie are that  a chef had melted chocolate, which he added to a batch of biscuits and wanted to bake a cake but didn’t have enough flour.
Folklore has its origin coming from a careless cook that forgot to put baking powder in the chocolate cake batter recipe.
The second story goes while making a chocolate cake but forgot to add baking powder. When the cake didn’t rise properly, instead of tossing it out,  cut and served the flat pieces.
The original brownies had no leavening, except for an egg or two, and little flour, but were so rich with butter and melted chocolate that they baked up softer than other cookies.
