Origin of the word brownie

The origin of the word "brownie" is debated. One theory suggests it comes from the "brownies" of Scottish folklore, mischievous spirits known for helping with chores. Another theory links it to the "brown" color of the treat, made popular in the late 19th century. Some believe it evolved from the word "brown bread", a type of bread common in the 1800s. Regardless of the exact origin, the word "brownie" has become synonymous with the delicious chocolatey treat we know and love today.
