THE BEST BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 180 degrees Celsius.
• Mix oil and sugar until well blended.
• Add eggs and vanilla; stir just until blended.
• Mix all dry ingredients in a separate bowl.
• Stir dry ingredients into the oil/sugar mixture.
• Pour into greased 9 x 9 square pan.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until sides just starts to pull away from the pan.
• Cool completely before cutting.
• Note: I usually double the recipe and bake in a 9 x 13 pan. If you double the recipe, you will need to cook longer than 20 minutes.

LYNN'S "SICK" BROWNIES BITES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
• Combine the graham crackers, coconut, walnuts, condensed milk, chocolate chips and salt in a medium bowl. Stir with a wooden spoon until thoroughly combined. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and press to the edges.
• Bake until the chocolate melts and the top is golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir the hot mixture in the pan until the chocolate is incorporated throughout. Press back out to the edges and set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Spread the confectioners' sugar on a dinner plate. Scoop out the brownie mixture by the tablespoon and shape into balls. While still warm, roll each ball in the sugar to coat. The bonbons will keep, tightly covered, for 2 days.

THE BEST BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter an 8-inch square baking dish or pan, then line with parchment paper if desired to make getting the brownies out easier.
• Mix flour and salt together in a bowl; set aside.
• Place chopped chocolate and butter into a heatproof bowl and set over a saucepan with 1 inch of very gently simmering water. When the butter and almost all of the chocolate is melted, stir until smooth. Turn off the heat and set aside.
• Mix sugar and eggs in a mixing bowl with an electric hand mixer until very airy, thick, and creamy, about 5 minutes. Mix in vanilla extract, then slowly drizzle in the melted chocolate mixture, while mixing on high speed.
• Dump in the flour mixture and mix on low speed just until the flour disappears. Use a spatula to transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread as evenly as possible.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out virtually clean, about 30 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Use a spatula to lightly press down the higher parts of the brownie around the edge of the dish. Let cool to room temperature, 20 to 30 minutes, before removing and cutting into 9 pieces.

BILLIE'S BROWNIES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325°. Grease and flour pan (I now spray mine with cooking spray). Melt butter and put into mixing bowl, add cocoa to melted butter, mix well. Then add sugar to mixture and blend well. Then add slightly beaten eggs and vanilla, mix well. Now add the flour and nuts to mixture and mix only until the flour and nuts are mixed in well. Don't over stir. Pour mixture into pan. Now, it depends on your oven as to how long to cook them. My oven cooks fairly hot, so if I make an 8 x 8 pan, it takes about 25 minutes or 30 - 35 minutes for a 9 x 13 pan. (The recipe actually says 40 minutes, but I find that's too long in my oven) Mrs. Billie would stress DO NOT OVERBAKE, that is the key to success with brownies! Remove from oven when they 1st look done.
