healthy tip:
If you love brownies but hate the calories, try this tip for reducing some of the fat calories: For each half cup of butter called for in the recipe, substitute 1/4 cup butter plus 1/8 cup applesauce. You'll never notice the fat is missing!
storage tip:
Brownies freeze great! So don't worry about making a big batch and having them go to waste, simply freeze them in individual squares on a baking sheet. When solid, place them in a zip-top bag and freeze for up to several months.

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
