Did you know?

The first-known printed use of the word ‘brownie’ to describe a dessert appeared in 1896 in a Boston Cooking School cookbook written by Fannie Farmer. However, the original dish, which was called Farmer’s Brownie, did not contain chocolate. The chefs at the Palmer Hotel in Chicago who participated in the World Columbian Exposition were asked to create an all-new baked good recipe that could be easily picked up and eaten without a fork and thus came into existence the Brownie.
