“HEY!!! DON’T EAT THAT!!! TAKE YOUR DIRTY FINGERS AWAY!!”
After the scolding,
“I love you, Mama…….”
“You’re NOT having any of it if you touch it one more time!!!”
Tee wanted to make brownies for her friends at school on the day she cut class. So I dug up an old family recipe which really belongs to a Mormon friend of my Mom, and let me tell you, THESE are the best brownies, I’ve ever tasted. Every single time we’d go sailing in the past (pre Tee), we’d request for a few boxes of these amazing light brown brownies to bring along with us. Brownies are usually dark brown, right? These are different.
Since I am so nice, I am sharing the recipe. Try it and get back to me, okay?
*********************************************
Mix all dry ingredients together
Dry Ingredients
2 cups sifted Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
0.5 teaspoon Baking Powder
A pinch of Salt
Wet Ingredients
1 block 250g naturally melted Butter
1 cup Brown Sugar (melt this into the Butter)
0.5 cup Castor Sugar (but I found this too sweet, so reduce to a quarter?)
3 beaten Eggs
1 teaspoon Vanilla Essence
1 cup Hershey’s Chocolate Chips (the absolute BEST!)
1 cup Chopped Nuts (we used walnuts but you can use anything you like)
2 tablespoons Hershey’s Chocolate Syrup (an absolute MUST)
_________________________________
Turn the oven on 325 degrees Fahrenheit or equivalent (we used 170 degrees Celsius). Melt sugar into butter. Then pour sugared butter into mixed dry ingredients. Put in the eggs and the Vanilla Essence and mix well. Add everything else and mix well. It will feel sticky and gooey, light coloured as shown above. Butter and flour a 9 inch by 13 inch banking tray. Pour in mix and spread evenly. Bake in oven for 30-40 minutes and smell your home fill with the most gorgeous whiff of chocolate……………..
