I'm not evil but I do have 5 kids.
Okay, I'm not an evil person, but I have 5 kids. Whenever I grab food, my kids are like baby birds, hoovering around me squeaking until I give them a bite. But with 5 kids I wouldn't get any part of the food if I gave them all a bite. So, I do what every parent does, I tell them it's hot and they won't like it. But there's a problem. My kids know I say food is hot, so they laugh and ask for the bite again. When AI created a new recipe for chili brownies, I knew what I had to do.
I had to make the brownies, tell my kids they were hot, then let my kids eat said brownies. Anyway, here's the result:
I asked AI to create a brand-new recipe. Something that can't be found on the internet. At first, it created some decent sounding meals. But they weren't unique enough for me. Here's a quick list of recipes it created:
- Savory Pumpkin and Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breast
- Mango and Avocado Stuffed Chicken with Coconut Lime Sauce
- Caramel Apple Cheesecake Parfait
- Lavender Honey Panna Cotta with Blueberry Compote
But after I told Microsoft Copilot to get even crazier. Here's what it came up with!
Chocolate Chili Brownies
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Brownies:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla.
- Beat in the cocoa, flour, salt, baking powder, chili powder, and cayenne pepper until well blended.
- Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely before cutting into squares.
- Prepare the Chocolate Sauce:
- In a small saucepan, combine the dark chocolate chips, heavy cream, butter, and maple syrup. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is melted and the sauce is smooth.
