Welcome back to the kitchen, friends! In today's episode of the Old Cookbook Show, we're diving into the 1936 Viko cookbook to create an incredible vintage dessert: Unbaked Brownies. This recipe, from a cookbook published by an iconic aluminum cookware company, showcases the versatility of their products by featuring a wide range of dishes that can be cooked in pots, pans, frying pans, cake tins, and Dutch ovens.

Today, we'll walk you through the steps of making these unique unbaked brownies, including melting chocolate in a double boiler, using condensed milk, and customizing the recipe with graham crackers and pecans. This simple, yet delightful confection is perfect for holiday gatherings, and we'll show you how to make it easily without any hard sell or complicated ingredients.

Join us as we bring this historical recipe to life, offering tips and tricks along the way. Whether you're a fan of vintage cookbooks, looking for a unique dessert idea, or just love all things chocolate, this video is for you!


UNBAKED BROWNIES
2 squares (2 oz.) unsweetened chocolate
1 1/3 cups (1 can) sweetened condensed milk
2 cups (⅓ pound) vanilla wafer crumbs
1 cup finely chopped walnut meats

Melt chocolate in VIKO Aluminum Double Boiler. Add condensed milk, stirring over water five minutes until mixture thickens.
Add vanilla wafer crumbs and ½ cup finely chopped nut meats. Place chocolate mixture in buttered VIKO Aluminum Biscuit Pan and spread evenly, using a knife dipped in hot water.
Sprinkle top with remaining chopped nuts. Place in refrigerator several hours, or overnight. To serve, cut in squares. Makes 18.
NOTE: Graham crackers may be used in place of vanilla wafers.

I am once again flying in the Give Hope Wings fundraiser this year! Our June of 2024 flight will see us stop in many communities in Eastern Canada to raise awareness for this worthy cause.
Last year 2023 we raised over $27,000 towards helping our neighbours - we made a positive difference in the lives of many.
