Moms Cocoa Powder Brownies Recipes

MOM'S BEST BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease and 'flour' 9x13" pan, using cocoa powder instead of flour. (This will eliminate any white spots on bottom of brownies).
• In a large bowl, stir together cocoa, flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
• Add oil, eggs, vanilla, and any optional ingredients. Mix well, stopping as soon as all ingredients are incorporated - excessive mixing will cause a cake-like texture.
• Pour into prepared 9x13" pan.
• Bake at 350 for 27-30 minutes. Test with toothpick, the brownies are done when no batter clings to it. Remove slightly earlier if you like a gooey, eat with a fork brownie.
