Brownies

Nanapants came over today to help me measure some stuff and lend me a drill. (Yes she is a chick but has lots of DIY machines).

I made brownies. For 2 reasons... A. Wanted something to do as I am going stir crazy just sitting on my bum. And B. That's what I often do when people come to visit.
Oh and just reminded me, there is a C. too; it takes no time to make them so there is really no excuse.... :)

Easy peasy brownies...

150 gr butter.
1 cup cocoa
4 eggs
2 cups of sugar
1 teasp vanilla essence
3/4 cups of plain flour
1 teaspoon  baking powder
(Walnuts - optional)

160 degrees until ready. 30 - 45/50 min depending on oven. Don't leave in too long and should be slightly crunchy, not dry. 

What to do;

Line baking tray 27cm x 18cm with baking paper. Pour in some walnuts to taste. Leave as is.

Prepare all ingredients so ready to just pour into food processor.

 Ie. Crack all eggs into glass or cup and put besides food processor.

Mix all dry (apart from cocoa) ingredients in bowl and set aside.

Have a cup of cocoa prepared by side and vanilla essence ready.

Melt butter and pour into food processor. Add cocoa. Keep food processor on and pour in eggs. Beat for 10 seconds or until mixed, quickly open lid and pour in dry ingredients. Quickly put on processor and mix. Keep it on and add vanilla essence. Mix.

Open lid and pour sticky mix over walnuts. Put in oven and should be ready to eat within the hour! yum!
