Pampered Chef Brownie Pan

Pampered Chef Brownie Pan

LOVE LOVE LOVE this pan! I had been "eyeing" this pan from the first time I'd heard of it. It took me a while to take the plunge and purchase such an expensive (ha $19.95) item. And the day I got it and brought it home Elijah said, "you'll just look at it and put it in a yardsale!" He does know me well. Did I mention he is only 5!

The first thing I made using my pan was in fact brownies! We made the triple layer with chocolate chip cookies, reece cup center and brownie on top. It was not our favorite. In fact my husband and I both attempted to eat the brownie off top. Lucky for me brownies are not why I purchased the pan!

As soon as the brownies were out of the pan I mixed up some cornbread and popped the pan back in the oven! The pan not only comes out perfectly clean (best nonstick ever) but the cornbread is evenly brown, and tons of edges just the way momma likes it! :) After discussing with a coworker who asked if it was still "crunchy" I realized even though it is nonstick I should still oil the pan like before! So I did, and oooh it's so good!

Sunday I was thinking of all the make ahead breakfast and dinners I could do for the week. Of course the brownie pan was first out of the cabinet. I had made these http://familyfun.go.com/recipes/mini-frittatas-687877/ for breakfast once before and I used my muffin pan and what a mess! This time they are a little more square but each one slid right out! Ah yes! Makes momma happy! These little delights will last in the fridge a couple of days, if they aren't eaten before they get there!
