BROWNIES: More cakey than fudgy brownies

A great Penzey brownie recipe

1 cup butter (2 sticks)
3/4 cup cocoa (natural or dutch - I use 1/4 black and 1/2 dutch)
2 cups sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups AP flour
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
1/2 cup powdered sugar to sift on top of brownies (optional)

Preheat oven to 325. Grease a 9x13 inch glass pan. Melt butter in a small pan then sift in cocoa and whisk until smooth. Pour into a large mixing bowl, let cool. Add sugar and vanilla, mix well. Lightly whisk the eggs, then add to batter and stir to blend. Add flour, stir until combined. Brownies should be stirred by hand, until just blended. Add nuts if desired, spoon into baking dish. Bake for 30-40 minutes, until the middle springs back when lightly pressed and the edges start to pull away from the sides of the pan. Let cool, then sift powdered sugar over the top if desired. Cut into small squares and store in a covered container.

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 30-40 minutes
Yield: 16-24 squares
