Home-Made Brownies

Ladies and Gentlemen - presenting Master Baker Tim!

That's right - Tim made homemade brownies all by himself last night. I didn't help at all. And let me tell you, those brownies are delicious. I'd even consider making these instead of boxed brownies. I mean, boxed brownies are amazing, but these were so chocolatey. I knowing that we made them ourselves (or Tim's self) is so awesome. I've only attempted brownies from scratch once before and it went ok. This is by far a better recipe. Give it a try!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x9 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the oil, sugar, and vanilla. Beat in eggs. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt; gradually stir into the egg mixture until well blended. Stir in walnuts, if desired. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  3. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the brownie begins to pull away from edges of pan. Let cool on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
