Chewy Brownies
Servings
Ingredients
- 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate
- 1/3 cup butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease an 8″ square baking pan.
- Melt the chocolate and butter together in the top part of a double boiler set over barely simmering water.
- When the ingredients have melted, blend them thoroughly and remove the pan from the heat.
- Combine the eggs and sugar in a large bowl and beat them 2-3 minutes or until the mixture is thick and pale.
- Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl and stir this mixture into the chocolate mixture. Stir in the vanilla extract and nuts, if used.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30 minutes. Cool the brownies in the pan. Cut them into 16 squares.











This was a VERY easy recipe to prepare. Let’s hope my not so easy oven cooperated with its temperature setting and that the brownies are indeed so delicious and chewy!
