GENERAL BROWNIE BAKING PROCEDURES
1.Brush both the lower and upper cooking plates with vegetable oil to assist in the removal
of the brownies after baking. Brush the brownie cutter insert with a generous coat
of vegetable oil while it sits on the lower cooking plate. Depending on the recipe, some
brownies may be more difficult to remove and may require a more generous application.
2.Use 2 tablespoons to add batter to the Ultimate Brownie Maker (one to add, the other
to push batter into Maker). Add 1 heaping tablespoon of batter to each of the 8 brownie
sections. (See Figure 3.) Add batter to all 8 sections.
CAUTION: It is recommended that all 8 brownie sections be filled when using
the Ultimate Brownie Maker. 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 baking results.
IMPORTANT: Do not fill batter more than 1⁄2 to 2⁄3-way up the cutter sides.
Brownies will expand when baked. Results may vary by recipe.
3.After batter has been added, use the lid handle to lower the top lid and bake
for approximately 8 minutes.
NOTE: The green READY light will cycle on and off as the unit maintains baking
temperatures.
NOTE: As brownies bake, steam will be emitted from the Ultimate Brownie Maker.
This is normal.
4.After 8 minutes, wearing a protective oven mitt or potholder, use the lid handle to lift
the top lid to the open position.
WARNING: Do not grasp the insert’s side handles. Use the lid handle.
5.Lift the top lid to expose the baked brownies and allow to cook (opened)
for 1 additional minute.
NOTE: Cooking times may vary slightly based on the temperature of the Ultimate Brownie
Maker, amount of batter, and brownie batter recipe.
6.If necessary, lower the lid and continue cooking for 15 seconds at a time until brownies
are baked to your liking.
7.Wearing oven mitts, grasp the metal brownie cutter insert’s side handles,
lift slowly and carefully up and out of the lower cooking plate. Set aside.
8.Use a heat-proof plastic or wooden spatula to remove cut baked brownies.
NOTE: If additional brownies are to be baked, wearing a protective oven mitt,
wipe
the cooking plates clean with a dry cloth or paper towel. Keep the Ultimate Brownie
Maker closed to retain heat. Always wait until the green READY light illuminates
before baking more brownies.
9.Oil both the lower and upper cooking plates and metal brownie cutter insert
with a generous coat of vegetable oil, add batter and bake following the instructions
previously described.
10. When all brownie baking is complete, unplug the power cord from electric outlet.
