How to store chocolate Brownies

You may store brownies in a tightly sealed container and place it in the fridge for 7-10 days. Freeze for up to 2 months and allow it to thaw before eating.

What type of cocoa powder to use for brownies

Any unsweetened cocoa powder will work for these easy to make chocolate brownies. But our favorite kind is Hershey’s.

Can brown sugar be used in brownies

Brown sugar works just fine in brownies, as well as cane sugar. We used granulated stevia for this recipe.

Does freezing ruin brownies

It is completely safe and ok to freeze brownies and eat when ready. Just like any other baked goods, you can simply reheat the brownies if you like them warm or allow it to thaw in the fridge.
