Grilled Brownie
Written by Diana - June 29, 2009 10 Comments
Last night was our anniversary – and we spent the night alone without any kids, animals, noise – just the two of us spending time together. Tonight, we grilled chicken and had a salad, nothing really special, just a regular family meal. Later I was thinking about the anniversary and realized we didn’t do anything to involve the kids, so I told my husband if he ran out and picked up some ice cream I would quickly assemble a brownie (box mix). Since it’s summer and I hate heating up the house I wanted to try something new and grill it out on the deck .
I lined my cast iron grill pan with foil, sprayed it with some oil, then poured the mix in it. I placed the pan over the two middle burners which were turned on low. The two burners on the outside were on high. It baked rather quickly with the lid down and came out quite nice. When we are camping I bake biscuits and other things over the stove by flipping pans, but since the grill has a lid to keep in the heat, there’s no need to flip.
We served the warm brownies in a bowl with scoops of ice cream over top for our dessert and enjoyed it on the deck with dusk setting in. The family loves to eat all of our meals outside and with the new grill – we’ll be doing most of the cooking and it seems if we can get some more cast iron pans, maybe the baking too. Have you ever tried baking on the grill? Besides s’mores? What’s your favorite grilled dessert?

Oh my goodness, that is so cool! Sounds and looks delicious. The only type of dessert we have made on the grill would be pineapple (yuck) and peaches (yum). Never thought to bake anything though.
I really want to re-do our deck so we can add a covered section where we can then add a table and chairs. That would be awesome!

Happy anniversary! Grilled brownies are a cool idea, those must have been so good! I’ve only grilled fruits such as pineapple, apricots, and peaches.

Hi Diana,
Happy Anniversary! Interesting method of baking a brownie =). When I went camping with friends years ago, we made a pineapple upside-down cake in a cast iron pot over a campfire. That was a blast. I’ll have to give your grilled brownie a try though – yum!

Well I totally want brownies now and this gave me a cool idea for a post – double score, well, except I have no brownies. Technically that only makes me a one-time winner.

I have been trying things on the grill since our oven went out. When we would make brownies in the oven we would unwrap hershey bars and put them righ on after the brownies came out. So tomorrow I am going to try this out.
