This summer, Pillsbury is about to make it easier than ever to enjoy the taste of freshly baked brownies at home with its new Place and Bake Brownies. While the company has been selling ready-to-bake cookies for years, now it's applying the same concept to everyone's favorite chocolate dessert.
Pillsbury's new Place and Bake Brownies are essentially rounds of frozen, pre-cut brownie batter. Just as the name suggests, all consumers have to do is to place the brownies in individual muffin liners or in a pan, and bake them for 20 minutes until warm and soft. This means there's no need to add extra ingredients and no messy dishes to clean up. Perhaps best of all, the ready-to-bake brownies come in three different varieties: Chocolate Fudge, Marshmallow, and Peanut Butter Cup.
