My little brother had a party this weekend, which gave me a chance to try out a couple of my “old standard” baking recipes in the new oven
These are my brownies I’ve made a thousand times. And I don’t have very many good photos of them because they got eaten too fast. Which just gives you an indication of how good they are.
Now I have been at work all day and I’m too tired to write you a long speil about why you should make these. You shouldn’t need a speil about why you should make brownies.
Brownies are good.
Brownies
Ingredients:
- 225g butter
- 2 1/4 cups caster sugar
- 1 1/4 cups cocoa powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups plain flour
- 2 cups assorted add ins (this time I used white chocolate chips and mini marshmellows)
- 4 eggs
Method:
- Preheat oven to 175 degrees
- Butter a 9″x13″ baking dish. With baking paper too. Do this well. Trust me, learn from my previous mistakes.
- Melt butter over low heat
- Stir in sugar and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring until well combined (but do not let boil!!)
- Pour into a large mixing bowl and mix in cocoa, eggs, salt, baking powder and vanilla extract until well combined
- Stir in flour and add ins
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until a tester in the minute comes out mostly clean, the centre is moist but cooked, and the edges are set
- Cool in pan for 10 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack
