My Favorite Recipe / Blog Every Day in June #21

This recipe isn't going to help on the weight loss front, but it's great to take to parties! I was in need of a really great Brownie recipe and knew that my Mama would be able to help. She got this recipe from Carol at work and it is so good! 

Don't these just look delicious?!


 Set the oven to 350°F.
Meet my super basic oven.

 Grease your Baking Dish.
Hello Pyrex!
Gather your ingredients, this is a quick and easy recipe...
 
Flour, Oil, Sugar, Baking Powder, Vanilla, Cocoa, Salt and Eggs
 
Start this off with 4 Eggs in the mixer, may God bless the Kitchen Aid...
They lined up perfectly!
 
Wisk them up, if you don't have a Kitchen Aid it can be done with a hand mixer or with an old fashioned wisk.

Add in the Sugar...

 And Wisk...

Next measure out 3/4 a cup of Oil and mix it in with everything else.

Next is the Cocoa - you can use regular, but please please use the dark! It's SO YUMMY!

When you finish mixing it should look like this, ohhh....how beautiful!
 
Then add in the Vanilla, Salt, and Baking Powder


 
And now the last ingredient - Flour!

Mix it all up - it's gonna be a really thick mixture, but it will settle in the pan nicely without any help at all. 


Set the timer for around 20 minutes
Hi Conrad!

When the timer went off I had to bake mine for about 4 minute longer since the toothpick I put into the center didn't come out clean. After the additional 4 minutes it was perfect!


Here is the full recipe

Really Good Brownies

4 Eggs
2 Cups Sugar
3/4 Cups Oil
3/4 Cups Hershey's Special Dark Cocoa

Preheat Oven to 350°F.
Grease a 9x13 (ish) pan.
Wisk Eggs and Sugar together.
Add Oil and Cocoa and mix well.
Stir in Vanilla, Salt, Baking Powder, and Flour and mix well.
Pour all into the greased pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
Make sure a toothpick placed in the center will come out clean and it's done!
