Answer 1

Well here is a recipe for skillet brownies made from scratch.  I would assume that you can use the box version as well.  Give it try :0)

Skillet Brownies

by Sally Strackbein

1 1/2 cup flour

1 tsp. double action baking powder

1/2 cup Hershey cocoa

1 1/2 cup sugar

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. vanilla

3 tsp. Just Whites

2/3 cup oil

2/3 cup water

1 cup nuts, chopped

Throw everything but the nuts into a bowl and mix well. Stirring with a spoon works fine. Add the nuts.

Grease a 12 inch cast iron skillet. Put the mixture in the skillet. Cover and cook at medium low heat for about 20-30 minutes. Stick a toothpick in and when it comes out clean, the brownies are done. They may burn a little to get the top done. Just cut off the burned part. This one really works better in an oven if possible (350 degrees).

Makes about 1 1/2  dozen.

Hope this helps :0)

Answer 2

You know, back in the day (like the 100 years ago day) people used to cook over stove-top type heat all the time!  

I'm sure it would work.  Just keep a couple of things in mind:

1) make sure you use a heavy-gauge pan, like an iron skillet if you have one.

2) make sure it is well-oiled

3) use a cover for the pan and keep the heat low and constant.  You don't want the outside to burn while the inside is still jiggly.

Good luck!  At the very least, you'll make a tasty mess.  But I bet it will turn out fine!
