ELSA'S BROWNIES

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch square baking dish with foil and grease with cooking spray.
• Melt the semisweet chocolate and butter in a medium heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth.
• Beat together the sugar and eggs in a stand mixer on medium-high speed until creamed, about 3 minutes. Pour in the chocolate mixture and whisk until combined well. Mix in the flour, baking powder and salt for about 2 minutes on medium speed. Stir in the bittersweet chocolate chunks and transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish.
• Bake until the top is shiny and set and the sides have begun to pull away slightly, about 35 minutes for fudgy brownies.

QUICK AND EASY BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch pan.
• Combine the melted butter, sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla, eggs, flour, baking powder, and salt. Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Decorate with walnut halves, if desired.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with crumbs, not wet. Cool on wire rack.

HERSHEY'S SYRUP BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease the bottom of a 9 by 13 inch pan or jelly roll/brownie pan.
• After melting butter in microwave, cream sugar and butter together. Add eggs, one at a time and beating well after each addition.
• Add vanilla extract.
• Add flour, mix well.
• Add Hershey syrup, mix well.
• Add chopped nuts, if using.
• Pour batter into pan. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until brownies test done with a toothpick.
• When the brownies are almost done baking, prepare icing.
• Bring to boil in the microwave, the butter, cocoa and 1 T. milk.
• In a mixing bowl, add confectioners' sugar. Add the cocoa mixture to the sugar and beat well. Add 1 t. vanilla extract. Add the rest of the milk. Add enough to get the desired spreading consistency.
• Let brownies cool about 5-10 minutes. Spread icing on brownies. Sprinkle with some more chopped nuts, if desired. The icing will harden to a fudge-like consistency.
• Let brownies cool completely before cutting into squares.
