Description
A recipe my Uncle Drew brought with him when he visited for our family reunion. I think we made about five batches of these rich, chocolaty goodies over the course of his stay! Top the brownie batter with shredded coconut or nuts if desired.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup butter
- 2 cups white sugar
- ¾ cup cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 4 eggs, lightly beaten
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch oven-proof skillet.
- Place butter in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in the microwave until melted
- about 30 seconds. Add sugar and cocoa powder to butter and stir. Heat butter-cocoa mixture in the microwave until sugar is dissolved and mixture is smooth
- about 30 seconds.
- Mix vanilla extract into cocoa mixture. Stir in eggs
- then add flour and stir until batter is well-mixed. Pour batter into the prepared skillet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of brownie comes out clean
- 40 to 50 minutes.
