This terrific treat is included in a book of good-but-easy recipes my sister compiled as a wedding present for me. She refers to them as money-back guarantee brownies. And I can confirm that they turn out 100% of the time. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, melted and cooled |
3 eggs |
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup sugar |
1 cup packed brown sugar |
3/4 cup baking cocoa |
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 cup chopped nuts |
icing: |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1-1/4 cups confectioners' sugar |
2/3 cup baking cocoa |
2 tablespoons milk |
2 tablespoons hot brewed coffee |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat the butter, eggs and vanilla. Combine the dry ingredients; gradually add to butter mixture. Stir in nuts (do not overmix).
2. Spread 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. Cool on a wire rack.
3. In a small bowl, beat the icing ingredients until smooth. Spread over cooled brownies. Cut into bars. Yield: 1-1/2 dozen.
