Its flatness, wetness and delicateness of the top layer make brownie one of the most popular cakes in the whole world.
History of Brownie
The popular history reads that brownie was created by total accident. While one of the housewives was preparing the cake for the guests, she completely forgot to add baking powder. Even though the cake came out to be a sad layer, she decided to cut the cake into even squares and serve it. To housewife's surprise, the guests did enjoy the dessert very much. Brownie became a base of American desserts and what is more it rolled up to Europe where the original recipe underwent many modifications.
