38 Decadent Brownie Recipes

Now that the arrival of August marks the beginning of National Brownie Month, there's even more reason to try out new baked brownie recipes.

Since brownies can be so easily made from a boxed mix, many creative chefs are getting inventive with the tools used for cooking these snack squares. Some of the most impressive examples of this include brownies inspired by deep dish pizzas that are prepared in a cast iron pan, or using a waffle iron to have them resemble a beloved breakfast classic.

In terms of ingredients, some of the most novel brownie recipes make use of healthy additions like beans and rhubarb, while others make the chocolate snacks extra decadent by combining them with other desserts like cheesecakes, candy bars and cookies.
