Recipe by J SPENCER This is a brownie recipe my mom taught me to make. They are sweet, soft, and chewy (and very bad for you, like all good recipes are!)

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  3. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top has crusted over. You want the tester to come out a with a little batter on it, not completely clean. Cool for a few minutes before cutting into bars.
