All-Edges Brownie Pan Makes My Inner Child Want to Die

Posted August 26, 2009 12:05 PM

From Gizmodo:

Attention, gross chewy-edge brownie people: You're wrong. You always have been, and you always will be. But that hasn't stopped you from getting your very own brownie pan, to help you indulge your vice in the purest way possible. Here's the pitch: The serpentine wall shape of the All Edges Brownie Pan conducts heat better than your average baking pan resulting in more even cooking. The crazy shape also gives each piece two yummy edges,and that's where the concentrated brownie love is! Granted, I can get behind that operative term—"even cooking"—as long as it can be twisted to mean that my brownies will be uniformly gooey, not chewy, or crunchy, or whatever wrongheaded adjective you choose to cling to.

I'm with the pan people... The edges are always the best.

That's it then. The battle lines are drawn. The batter stirred and poured. Nothing less than the future of mankind awaits the ominous tolling of the kitchen timer.

In a different reality, I might have called you "friend". But it is not to be. My loyalty lies in the succlent center, and yours in the crusty outer fringe.

Perhaps our children's grandchildren may one day come together in peace over a serving of some as yet uninvented chocolatey dessert. May they forgive us our entrenched culinary bias. But for us...it is WAR.

Wait wait wait. No need for war. look closer and you will see that every piece of deliciousness coming out of that pan has a harmony of both a wonderful crusty part and a splendid chewy part. Now, in the name of Betty Crocker, can't we all just get along?

Hang on a minute there cowboy! So RVZ717 gets the crunchy part, Guest gets the chewy part, what about the rest of us? That only leaves the smell of brownies, and the smell-o-vision circuit on my computer is BSOD!

I'll lick the pan (you can watch if you like). You have got to be quick when food is involved.

OWW pans still hot, I burnt my tongue.

Well it could be spherical.

Although there may be some practical reason why this wouldn't work.

Flange a metal sphere cut in half.

Say a prayer to ward off Tim Taylor spirits.

With a little electronic and machine work, throw a spin on a couple axis points in the oven and add a little time.

Pray the wife doesn't come home while all hell is breaking loose in the oven.

Fat free brownies?!? Merely saying those words pollutes the mouth - to cleanse yourself, you must consume mass quantities of pure righteous chocolate!
