Kit Kat Brownies
When it comes to chocolate, I have a bit of a weakness. And while I am totally a plain chocolate kinda girl, lately I have gotten really hung up on Kit Kats.
They are a gift from above.
I thought I would put Kit Kats in the middle of brownies and see what happened….and rather than boring you with some stupid recipe post, I’ll just show you what I did to make Kit Kat Brownies. It’s honestly not rocket science.
Taste?
Did Kit Kat Brownies Taste Good?
You are going to be surprised, but I think I prefer my Kit Kats and brownies separate. It was chocolate overkill (weird, right?) and when the Kit Kats melted in between the brownie mix, it was hard to tell when the brownies were actually done. Of course when I put a knife in and it didn’t come out clean, I was guessing whether it was brownie mix or just melted chocolate. As a result of the confusion, I overcooked by at least 4-5 minutes and it altered the flavor of the wafers. I think a few more times and I may be able to get this down and have not given up hope that this could still be a match made in heaven!
No matter what it was fun and cooking has to be about fun and adventure sometimes. I am going to try again with some of my other favorite candies and I’ll report back if we get a total Brownie/Candy marriage winner! Looking for more cooking? Try my Spicy Jalapeno Mexican Wontons…easy too!

Hello! So I did try it. I wasn’t as fond of it as I thought I would either! With the choc are melted off of the wafer it wasn’t food… They were nice and gooey brownies but when I bit into the wafer it wasn’t good… It’s like the cooking of it altered the texture of the wafer. Definitely a good on paper but not so much when you make it.. 🙁
Hi trisha,
So I was wondering if you had tried this recipie again? Also, how many boxes of brownies did you use? I actually want to make it for a family gathering this holiday and wondered if you ha any other information for someone that is going to try this? I’m very excited cause I love kit lays too! I almost wonder if it’s good if they are a little undercooked or soft with the melted chocolate from the kit kats… Thanks for having the idea and I will let you know how they turn out!
I havent tried it again- I just personally didnt love it. I think it could use some alterations. I did use 2 boxes of mix to cover them all. I would def try undercooking them a bit to see and let me know!

Thankyou! I reported it. I really appreciate that you took the time to come here. I always try to do that for other bloggers as well. 🙂
Do you have a good brownie recipe? I try the box brownies but haven’t found one I like and I always forget which ones I’ve tried lol.
Wondering if you used 2 bownie boxes to make this recipe? I didn’t see the recipe posted???
A friend gave me this recipe:
1 box brownie mix 9×13 size
follow directions on box for ‘cakelike’ brownies
pour 1/2 batter in prepared pan
place 3 large Symphony bars (toffee is best) on top,
pour remaining batter on top of bars
Bake @ 350 for 30 min.
To die for! Everyone LOVES them, never any left over.
What is a Symphony bar , I have never heard of this candy bar and where can you purchase it?
Can you buy it in Canada or is it the bar of the USA? Is there any other bar you can substitute?
Please reply back and let me know, thanks very much.
I would love to try this with after eights. I love chocolate and mint together.
Please post the recipe for the brownie mix!! The brownies look perfect, just the way I like them and I haven’t been able to find the recipe anywhere!
Looks like a great recipe! I reckon I could eat that whole Kit Kat Brownie in one go. Easily!
My son was very excited to try this, kit kats are his fav!
I thought this was gonna be awesome, but honestly, save the kit kats and eat them without putting into batter. The kit kats give the brownies a weird texture , doesn’t taste like much since the milk chocolate melts off and your left with a hard wafer in the middle of soft brownies. It was a good idea though, just didn’t mesh well.
that is exactly why I noted this in the post,,, i personally didnt love it either, but some people do
This is one of the best recipe posts I have had the pleasure of reading… straight-forward and to the point. So digging your recipe!
Thanks for being upfront and honest in the outcome of this recipe adventure… you didn’t try to foo foo it up and make it seem like some luscious wonderful treat.
You Rock.
Seriously.
🙂
I made these putting butter fingers in them and they was the very good and i tried them with Reese cups to MMMMMMMM TASTE WAS AMAZING!
I was just wondering do u have to use just one brownie mix or do u use 2 mixes???
I used two
How long do you bake them and on what temperature ?
I just followed the brownie box rules
try putting the kit kats on top of the brownies, they will sink in a little but you will be able to tell if the brownies are done a little better then putting them in the middle..
These are mouth watering, KitKats are my fabourite candies ever! I bet they provided a nice crunch to the brownie too.
Chocolate is my Kryptonite. 🙂
I just gained 5 pounds looking at these. Thanks a lot!!!
😛
I loved you idea and made them using a brownie recipe I’ve used a thousand times. I knew exactly when they were cooked and the wafer was still crunchy while the brownie had soft rich melted chocolate throughout. I made a large tray and put snicker bars in one end, also tasted incredible! Thankyou for the wonderful idea!
OOOH Snickers!!! I am going to try that!
I would never have thought to put kit kats in brownies. My daughter would adore this.
Oh my goodness, Trisha! That looks ridiculously good… dangerous, even! LOL As much as I don’t want to have a batch of brownies like that sitting around the house, how can I NOT try it now?! 🙂
I LOVE KitKats, they’re one of my most favorite candies.
Mmmmm Kit Kats, my #1 favorite candy. This does sound like a good idea. Maybe if you chopped the candy into little square chunks and sprinkled them over the top before baking that might help. Maybe.
Interesting. I like caramel in my brownies
