I got all the ingredients for Barb's Orgasmic Brownies🙂 in order to
contribute to our Coffee Farmer's Bake Sale. But I foolishly did not
read down to the parchment paper which is supposed to line the pan. I
live about an hour away from a place that would have parchment paper.
Is there any way I can do without the Parchment paper? Grease well
with butter? Use tin foil with butter on it?

Oh help, please.

BTW I plan to just call them *Barb's Incredible Brownies* and not use
the "orgasmic" word. It is being sold to the conservative public🙂
and we want to sell them out.

TIA so much to anyone who can help me.

I don't know what Barb's Brownies are like, but assuming that the batter
will cover the entire bottom of your pan, you could use waxed paper.

I just don't think I could bite into an orgasmic cookie. (I almost said
"brownie,"
but I think you see why I might not have ...)

You chickenshit! You want to sell them out, LEAVE the name as it is!
People will line up to buy "for my neighbor." Yeah, right. <vbseg>

The only reason for the parchment (IMO) is so they're easiest to remove
from the pan and tote somewhere else.

Skip the parchment. I've got a tv station coming to my house in 3 hours
and I plan to serve some brownies when we're done talking. I'm out of
parchment myself and will just grease and flour well the bottom of my
pan.

Hahaha, you're right, I am a chicken - a coward.

Thanks for all the help you kind people. I'll be able to get some wax
paper today!

The directions said to have all the exact things and I did get cake
flour, and boxes of unsweetened butter and Ghiradelli unsweetened
chocolate bars at $1.99 each for 4 oz.etc....Tomorrow is baking day🙂

Thank you again.

Wouldn't the wax melt into the brownies?

Nah.

Wax paper is pretty benign...

Personally, I'd use a light layer of butter, lightly dusted with corn
starch.

Nah to cornstarch. When I make chocolate goods I use cocoa.

Ooh, I like that idea!

I'd forgotten about it as I don't bake much.
Thanks for the reminder!

This is what I did when I baked a full pan this morning: I greased and
floured well the bottom of the pan and maybe 3/4" up the sides. No
parchment, no waxed, no paper. I baked the brownies and let them cool
on a rack for about 30 minutes. I put a cooling rack over the top,
inverted the pan (now the rack is on the bottom) and gave a little whack
on the cutting board and the brownies *fell out perfectly in one big
slab.* I turned them upright using another rack and life was swell at
Casa Schaller'ova.

I cut them with a bench knife and sent a plateful with the tv lady and
her cameraman who had just spent a couple hours with me (it might end up
to be 45-90 seconds on air -- this stuff cracks me up).

So I have since bought wax paper. Is it a stupid question to ask if
the "grease" you used was butter? I can imagine the waxed paper
making crinkles on the edges of the brownies. I have 2 or 3 pounds of
salted butter (thank you COSTCO) that I could use as "grease".

Better to use wax paper with butter or without wax paper and add
flour?

thank you for your help ALL!

Nope, it's not a stupid question. I use Crisco for greasing pans.

Minor annoyance at most.

I'm sure you could use that (probably not more than a tablespoon,
though. "-)

Better? I don't know. I usually use parchment (I'm out) and today used
fat and flour as described above. Better than waxed? I don't know.
Don't make yourself crazy over this -- they're just brownies. . . . .

The grease and flour method is what mom taught me to keep any cakes from
sticking. It always worked.

She used butter or cooking oil depending on the recipe.

Oiled or sprayed brown paper makes a good subsitute.
