Tom's Friend's Brownies
A humorous note added to this recipe is: 2 to 12 servings, depending on how generous you are with your chocolate. This Tom is unknown to me.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter or margarine
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
3 eggs
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt (depending on the saltiness of the nuts)
1/2 cup chopped nuts or to taste
1/2 cup chocolate chips
***
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Using a mixer, cream butter and sugar together well. Add vanilla and eggs. In a separate bowl, mix together flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt, then add to creamed mixture. Stir in nuts and chocolate chips.
Pour into an 8" X 8" baking dish. Bake 35 to 45 minutes. The longer you bake the more they are cake like. Less time produces a fudgy-chewy brownie.
