This makes one 8×8 pan. Just big enough to satisfy a hungry grand & her Papa; (plus, leaving a few for a grand breakfast the next morning!)

Ingredients:

  • 1c sugar
  • 1/2c flour
  • 1/3c cocoa
  • 1/4 tsp salt (See Note)
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2c vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp Vanilla

Mix everything together thoroughly, ensuring there are no lumps or bumps. Spray an 8×8 pan with PAM or grease with butter. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 20 – 25 minutes.

Note : I happen to think these were great just as they were BUT our grand is honing in her palate to which she informed me “there was too much salt”. So, may I suggest a tasting before baking to ensure the salt factor isn’t over powering for your palate!

And seriously, I encourage you to play around with texture & flavor by tossing in some roasted pecans, walnuts, or almonds. Another lovely combo is to swirl in 1/4 c peanut butter or chocolate chips. The options are endless!  0714181010

Brownies from Scratch can be stored (or gifted!) by mixing-up all of the dry ingredients in a Ziploc bag. Be sure to label the outside with wet ingredients, oven temperature and timing. Perfect for a quick late night craving or as an addition to a gift basket for a new mom or college student.

I’m always searching out new recipes and while these are sure to tame the cravings of chocoholics everywhere, I came across them totally by mishap. Y’all know I go to Pinterest for inspiration from other cooks. It was there, I came across a pin for brownies leading me to www.afewshortcuts.com and Amanda who shared a different scratch brownie recipe. However, I quickly realized the pinned shortcut recipe wasn’t the same as the recipe image that caught my eye. And full disclosure; Brownies from Scratch was copied from the image.

I sure wish I knew who to thank for sharing. If you know who curated this lovely gem, won’t you send them my way? Click to be taken to the original pin.
