Today for Valentine's Day, my son thought he'd bring his grandmother a special treat along with a homemade card. To say the least, she enjoyed it very much. These brownies are super easy and taste so much better then the typical boxed brownie mix. Bake up a batch today for your family or special someone. :)
Valentine's Day Brownies
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2 eggs lightly beaten
1 cup brown sugar packed
1 1/4 cup extra light tasting olive oil (Filippo Berio is a nice brand)
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 tsp. vinegar
In a large bowl, mix above ingredients until well combined.
Add:
1 1/2 cup all purpose white flour
3/4 cup cocoa powder
3/4 cup cocoa powder
1tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
Combine just until absorbed. Be careful not to over mix. Keep in mind batter will be very thick.
Prepare a heart shaped tin generously with non-stick cooking spray. Scoop even amounts of batter into each heart. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into batter comes out almost clean. Do not over bake. Makes 6.
Enjoy!
