Milk Chocolate Brownies

Ingredients:

Batter:

½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature

1 cup milk chocolate pieces

¾ cup firmly packed light brown sugar

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2 large eggs

¾ cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon baking powder

 

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9 inch baking pan.

    Batter:
  2. In a small heavy saucepan over low heat, combine butter and chocolate; stir constantly until melted so mixture does not burn. Remove from heat and let cool. Or, place the chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl, microwave at 50% power and stir frequently just until the chocolate is melted; do not overheat as mixture will burn easily. Let cool.

  3. Add brown sugar and vanilla to chocolate mixture; stir to mix. Add eggs; beat until thoroughly mixed. Add flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder; stir until mixed.

  4. Spread the batter evenly in the baking pan. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Leave brownie in pan to cool; place baking pan on wire rack to cool. Cut into 2 inch squares.

    Makes about 1½  dozen brownies
