SUMMER BROWNIES


INGREDIENTS:

4 squares unsweetened chocolate
1/3 cup butter
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt

PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Line a 9″ x 9″ pan with foil. Butter foil. Melt the chocolate and butter and stir until all the chocolate is melted and the mixture is a uniform consistency (you can use a double boiler but I just put a small bowl in the microwave and stir and check every minute or so to make sure it doesn’t burn). In a separate medium size bowl beat the egg and sugar until a light yellow color and creamy. Add chocolate mixture and stir. Add vanilla, add flour and salt, mix until combined and pour into pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 - 25 minutes, or until a toothpick just comes out clean. I start checking at 18 minutes - do not overcook.
You can jazz the brownies up with a dusting of confectioner’s sugar if you would like, but they are equally delicious straight up.


YUMMY!
