1 cup sugar |
4 eggs |
1 can (16 ounces) chocolate syrup |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
frosting: |
1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips |
1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed, divided |
1/4 teaspoon almond extract |
1/2 cup chopped almonds |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in chocolate syrup and extract. Combine flour and salt; gradually add to chocolate mixture.
2. Pour into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean (brownies may appear moist). Cool on a wire rack.
