You will love these Brownie Brittles – a quick and easy treat!
When you make brownies, which do you prefer? The edges or the middle? I am all about those edges! While I do enjoy the middle pieces, if given a choice, I will always take the edges first.
I love brownies, but I especially love those crispy, delectable brownie edges. About a year ago, I tried brownie brittle from the store and instantly fell in love. If you haven’t tried it before, it’s a bag full of those excellent brownie edges, incredible, right!?!
Store-bought brownie brittle is expensive, so today I’m sharing my copycat Brownie Brittle Recipe with you that you can make for a fraction of the cost. It’s super easy to make and uses a box mix.
This Brownie Brittle Recipe will give you your brownie edge fix in every single bite!

2:Add all the ingredients to a large mixing bowl.
3:Use a whisk to mix until just combined.
4:Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet.
