Chewy Cocoa Brownies
1 2/3 cup sugar
3/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
2 T. water
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/3 cup flour
3/4 cup baking cocoa
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Preheat oven to 350*. Grease a 9x13 pan.
Combine sugar, butter and water in a bowl. Stir in eggs and vanilla. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; stir into sugar mixture. Stir in nuts, if desired. Spread into pan. Bake for 18-25 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out slightly sticky. Cool completely in pan (if you can wait that long!!!!) Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
I think this would be fabulous served warm with vanilla ice cream!!!
Enjoy!!!
