Itsy Bitsy Foodies

This quick and easy brownie recipe came from the back of a Baker’s chocolate box or from an advertisement for Baker’s chocolate.  It has been in my family’s recipe box for years.

When I was in high school, I pretty much paid my way to Washington D.C. for a school music trip by baking and selling these deliciously gooey brownies.  Dress them up by serving them in bite-sized morsels for a sophisticated cocktail party or dig into them à la mode at a kid’s party.  They are sure to be a hit for any crowd!

Ingredients

¾ cup butter

4 squares unsweetened chocolate (I use Baker’s chocolate)

Microwave the chocolate and the butter for 2 minutes until the butter melts.  Stir the mixture until the chocolate melts.

Stir in:

2 cups sugar

3 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

1 cup flour

Pour the brownie batter into a greased 9 x 13 pan.  Bake the brownies for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees.  Do not over bake them.  Test them at around 20 minutes but they may need to bake for up to 30 minutes.  These brownies are best when gooey!
