Using your Snack Heroes

Brownie Maker

Ensure the brownie maker is switched off

at the power outlet and the power cord is

unplugged.

1. Using the lid handle, lift the top lid to the

open position.

2. Remove the brownie cutter insert by

grasping both handles and place to one

side. Using the lid handle close the lid.

3. Insert the 3 pin plug into a 230/240

volt power outlet and turn the power on

ensuring the cord is fully unwrapped from

the base of the brownie maker.

4. Allow the brownie maker to pre-heat

until the green ‘READY’ light turns on.

This indicates that the cooking plates

have reached the correct temperature for

cooking.

5. Lightly spray the cooking plates and

brownie cutter insert with a cooking oil

spray before use.

6. Pour 1 cup of batter onto the preheated

cooking plate.

7. Gently lower the brownie cutter insert onto

the bottom cooking plate. Make sure the

handles fit into the notches in the body of

the Brownie Maker (See figure 2).

Important: Lower the lid to make sure the

brownie cutter insert is inserted correctly

and that the lid closes completely. If there is

not enough batter, DO NOT attempt to bake

a short batch. A smaller amount may cause

the baking times to change and may produce

inconsistent and unsatisfactory results.

Note: Results may vary by recipe; batters with

more sugar will brown quicker.

8. Gently close the lid and allow to cook for

approximately 8 minutes.

Note: As brownies bake, steam may be

emitted from the appliance which is normal.

9. At the end of baking time, use the handle

to lift the top lid.

Warning: DO NOT GRASP THE BROWNIE

CUTTER INSERT SIDE HANDLES. USE THE

LID HANDLE.

10. With the lid open, allow brownies to cool

for an additional 5 minutes.

11. Wearing oven gloves, grasp both brownie

cutter insert side handles, then lift slowly

and carefully out of the lower cooking

plate. Place to one side.

12. To remove the brownies always use a

plastic or wooden spatula. Never use a

sharp object or metal, as this will damage

the non-stick surface of the cooking

plates.

Brownie Making Tips

• When making brownies spread mixture out

evenly over the base of the brownie maker.

A rubber spatula works best.

• Use the cutter once the cooking has

completed. This will make it easier to

remove the brownie from the pan.

• Do not open the brownie maker during

cooking.

• Lightly grease the base of the brownie

maker with non-stick cooking spray.

• Don’t over mix brownies as this will result

in a tough texture.

• Use good quality dark chocolate and cocoa

powder.

• Blondies usually do not have melted

chocolate in the mixture. This is why they

usually have a more cake like texture.

• Fudgy brownies have minimal flour and

little to no rising agent.

• Melting butter rather than creaming creates

a denser fudgier outcome.

• Cake like brownies usually have more flour

and rising agent.

• Chewy brownies usually have several eggs.

• A large amount of melted chocolate in the

batter usually means the texture will be

stiffer.

• Brownies are cooked when they begin to

shrink away from the edges of the pan.

The centre should still be slightly gooey

but this will firm up during cooling.

• Freeze excess brownies in an airtight

container.

You can do so much more than just baking

brownies. You can also use quick mixes and

cookie dough in your brownie maker, just

follow the steps outlined on page 4.

The Snack Heroes

™

Brownie Maker can be

used as a hot plate and a sandwich press.

Here are some suggestions of what to cook

using the brownie maker:

• eggs

• pikelets

• pancakes

Care and Cleaning

To clean your brownie maker ensure that the

power has been switched off and the plug

removed from the power outlet. Allow the

product to cool down before cleaning.

Wipe the outside of your brownie maker with

a slightly dampened cloth and wipe dry.

The cooking plates in the brownie maker

are coated with a non-stick cooking surface,

therefore little cleaning is required. Simply

wipe cooking plates over with a damp cloth.

WARNING: Do not immerse the brownie maker

in water or any other liquid or use abrasive

scouring pads, powders or cleaners.

Before next use; lightly grease the cooking

plates and brownie cutter insert for easy

removal of brownies.
