Myriam over at Once Upon a Tart has decided to host new event: BrownieBabe of the Month. This caused a commotion in my home with brownie batter flying all over the place. However, I have a tried-and-true recipe that I will now be revealing to the public. My husband loves these brownies… he worships these brownies. I have to admit, they are pretty good. I do like lining the pan with parchment paper rather than greasing the sides. Not like you need to save the calories and fat, I just like the way they end up better. Enjoy!

Brownie and Milk

My Husband’s Favorite Brownies

The Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

The Steps:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8 inch square pan (or line with parchment paper).
  2. In a large bowl, blend melted butter, sugar and vanilla. Beat in eggs one at a time. Combine the flour, cocoa, and salt. Gradually blend into the egg mixture. Spread the batter into the prepared pan.
  3. Bake in preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until brownies begin to pull away from the sides of the pan. Let brownies cool, then cut into squares. Enjoy!

    After looking at all the brownie pictures posted in the “Brownie Babe of the Month” posting, I decided to try yours. My husband really liked them, though we know the calories must be awful.
    So this morning he took the leftovers to work, and everyone there enjoyed them too with their mid-morning coffee. They are very rich in flavor. Congratulations and thank you for sharing.
