Subj : Top 10 Famous Desserts 07 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Fri Feb 02 2024 14:48:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Katharine Hepburn's Favorite Brownies Categories: Cookies, Desserts, Chocolate, Nuts Yield: 16 servings 1/2 c Butter 1/2 c Cocoa 1 c Sugar 2 Eggs 1 ts Vanilla extract 1/4 c A-P flour pn Salt 1 c Walnuts or pecans According to some sources I found online, Ms. Hepburn’s original recipe that appeared in the August 1975 edition of Ladies’ Home Journal called for 2 ounces of unsweetened baking chocolate instead of cocoa. Melt butter and cocoa in a small pan over medium-low heat. Stir in sugar until smooth. Off of the heat, stir in eggs and vanilla. (Do this quickly - don’t let the eggs stand after adding to the mixture, or they may begin to scramble.) Next comes the flour and salt. Then, when they’re fully incorporated, fold in the nuts. Spread in a greased 8" square pan. Bake @ 325ºF/165ºC for 30 minutes, then live happily ever after (be careful not to overbake, or brownies will become dry). "They should be moist, not cakey!" Kate reputedly told her neighbor. Christine Rukavena Makes: 16 brownies RECIPE FROM: https://www.tasteofhome.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
