National Chocolate Brownie Day celebrates the chocolate brownie.
A brownie is a cross between a cookie and a cake. It is dense like a cookie but cake-like in consistency. Brownies are typically cooked in a pan and cut into squares.
Though the blond brownie had been around since 1896, the chocolate brownie made its official debut in print in 1898 in an advertisement in the Kansas City Journal. The following year, in 1899, the first chocolate brownie recipe would be published.
The chocolate brownie originated with Palmer House Hotel in 1893, it is believed. Proprietor Bertha Palmer was looking for a dessert that women would like and would easily fit in a boxed lunch, and her chef came up with the chocolate brownie.
By the mid-twentieth century, brownies would become one of North America's favorite snack-time desserts.
