- 1/2 cup margarine (1 stick)
- 2 medium eggs
- 2 tablespoons tap water
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
First melt the margarine. I do this in a
glass mixing bowl in the microwave, but you
could do in a small pan on the stove, and
then pour the melted margarine into a big
bowl. Add the eggs, tap water and sugar. Mix
very well. Add the cocoa, salt and vanilla
and mix again. Finally add the flour and
baking powder and stir until smooth. I do
all of this mixing with a whisk, but
electric beaters, or even a big spoon would
work too. Turn the batter into a well oiled
8-inch square pan. Bake at 350° for about 25
to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and
allow to cool. These are best frosted I
think. The recipe is easily doubled and
baked in a 9 by 13-inch rectangular pan.
Some people prefer this type of brownie to
Fudge Brownies. Personally I don't, but
everyone has their own taste.
