Katharine Hepburn’s Brownies
There were yummy. Nice and gooey with a great chocolate taste. The better the cocoa, the better the outcome. Served these for Nick and Ben's graduation.
YIELD 12 brownies TIME About 45 minutes
INGREDIENTS
½ cup cocoa
½ cup butter (1 stick)
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
¼ cup flour
1 cup chopped or brokenup walnuts or pecans (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla
Pinch of salt
PREPARATION
Step 1 Heat oven to 325 degrees.
Step 2 Melt butter in saucepan with cocoa and stir until smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool for a few minutes, then transfer to a large bowl. Whisk in eggs, one at a time. Stir in vanilla.
Step 3 In a separate bowl, combine sugar, flour, nuts and salt. Add to the cocoa-butter mixture. Stir until just combined.
Step 4 Pour into a greased 8 x 8-inch-square pan. Bake 30 to 35 minutes. Do not overbake; the brownies should be gooey. Let cool, then cut into bars.
