Rocky Mountain Brownie is a rich decadent brownie baked with a combination of nuts and chocolates. In this version, I have made it eggless using a combination of yogurt and oil. Topped with assorted roasted nuts and chocolate chips.
I know Brownie was a tough one to make these days as I seem to have covered so many versions. For the previous one, Chinnu said I have already baked it and for today's version also, Athamma said the same. Well, they fail to understand that even a different ingredient makes it a new dish for us. Anyway as long as they like it and enjoy it, I have no issues.
In today's brownie, which is supposed to be a spin of the famous Rocky Road Brownies, where marshmallows are a must for topping. In this version, the brownies are baked with assorted nuts and chocolate chips without marshmallows. So I felt it was much better for me.
I am yet to click the sliced pictures as I want the brownie to rest in the fridge for a while before slicing it. I came back home from work, refrigerated before slicing and it came out perfect! I had divided half for elders and the other half for the kids, with one side full of assorted nuts and the rest with chocolate chips.
I managed to taste both sides and must say it was just so divine! Another sinful brownie you can make is these Fudgy Eggless Brownies.
