Enhancing Chocolate Brownies with a Cream Charger

With the help of a cream charger, you can add a luxurious layer of whipped goodness to your brownies—turning a familiar treat into a festive, crowd-pleasing dessert.

A cream charger, filled with nitrous oxide (N2O), is a quick and efficient way to whip cream into soft peaks. But it can also be used to infuse flavors and create light, airy toppings that complement rich desserts like brownies.
