Brownies is a food that will melt away all your worries with a single bite. I found the recipe for these delectable little treats on the Peruvian cooking website Yanuq.com. My husband described these as 'the best brownies ever', I think he may be a little partical considering he is Peruvian and all. However, I am not Peruvian so I can tell you that these, unbiasedly, are the most delicous brownies I've ever tasted in my life! I immediately packed up and froze half the batch otherwide my husband and I would devour them all with in a couple of days! Hello, my name is Nicole and I am a sweets-a-holic. Is there a 12 step program for a problem like this?
This recipe is very simple to make and requires very basic ingredients. I believe you'll thoroughly enjoy these.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup Cocoa Powder
- 9 oz Butter
- 3 cups Sugar
- 2 cups Flour
- 6 Eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- Powdered Sugar
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Melt butter in a medium saucepan or double broiler on medium low heat. Remove from heat once completely melted.
- Mix in cocoa powder with melted butter until smooth.
- Once cocoa is completely incorporated, mix in sugar.
- Transfer the sugar mixture to a large bowl and mix in eggs.
- Sift flour and salt into sugar mixture and combine completely.
- Place batter in a rectandular baking dish (I used an 11 in x 7 in pan) that's been buttered and floured.
- Bake brownies for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
You can jazz up your brownies any way you'd like. A few ideas that immediately come to mind are:
- Vanilla extract
- Chocolate chips
- Nuts
- Peanut butter
- 1 tsp of instant coffee mix
This recipe yeilded me 24 1 inch square brownies that were quite thick. You could use a larger baking pan and get more, thinner brownies if you'd like. Just be sure to keep an eye on them so they don't overbake.
