Dr Pepper® Bacon Brownies
These aren’t your average brownies. Picture this: a luscious brownie base topped with crispy bacon that’s been infused with the classic flavors of Dr Pepper. How can you resist? Grab your apron, and let’s dive into this culinary adventure!
Ingredients
For the brownies, you will need:
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup Dr Pepper® (not the diet kind, we want the real deal!)
- 1 cup cooked bacon, chopped (because bacon makes everything better)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan—trust me, you don’t want these brownies sticking around.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Just don’t burn it, or you’ll be sorry!
- Add the sugar and mix well, then stir in the eggs and vanilla. Make sure everything is nice and homogenous—no one likes a brownie with identity issues.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt to combine. Gradually add this dry mix to the wet mixture, alternating with the Dr Pepper®. You’ll want to mix until just combined. Over-mixing will lead to tough brownies, and we don’t want tough friends.
- Fold in the chopped bacon like it’s your best friend. It’s all about the bacon love here!
- Pour the batter into your prepared baking pan and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean (a few crumbs are okay — they’re just stories waiting to be told!).
- Once they’re out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes before slicing into squares. You can serve them plain, or add a scoop of ice cream on top for that extra decadence!
And there you have it! Dr Pepper® Bacon Brownies that’ll make your friends rethink their life choices—like whether or not they’ve been indulging in enough bacon. Dig in and enjoy!
