“Friendship Brownies” Recipe

exps10775_thccs1227351d44If you’re having a brownie craving and want a quick and easy recipe, I highly recommend trying the Friendship Brownie recipe below. This is by far my favorite brownie recipe. I have made numerous other brownie recipes, including one from the usually good Mrs. Field’s Cookie Book, but none of them compare to this recipe. If you love Chocolate as much as I do, you’ve got to try this recipe.

Friendship Brownies

Dry Ingredients
1 Cup plus 2 Tbps flour
2/3 Cup brown sugar
3/4 Tsp salt
2/3 Cup sugar
1 Tsp baking powder
1/3 Cup baking cocoa
1/2 Cup Ghirardelli chocolate chips (I add 1 Cup :) )
1/2 Cup chopped walnuts

Wet Ingredients
3 eggs
2/3 Cup vegetable oil
1 Tsp Vanilla

To Prepare Brownies: In a bowl, beat eggs, vegetable oil and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients and stir well. Spread into a greased 9″ square baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 34-38 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.

This recipe makes 16 super-chocolatey brownies!!!

As the name states, Friendship Brownies also make a great gift for your friends.

To make a Friendship Brownie gift, simply do the following:

1. Layer the dry ingredients only from the recipe above into a 1-quart glass jar.
2. Close the jar with a tight-fitting lid.
3. Type the recipe above on a decorative recipe card.
4. Punch a hole in the upper-left corner of the recipe card and thread a pretty ribbon or yard through it for tying around the neck of the jar.
5. Add a bow on the jar lid for additional decoration (optional).

Enjoy!

LESSON LEARNED: Life’s too short. Make brownies!

    The recipe used Ghiradelli ground chocolate which has a different and unique flavor. I will try this recipe and also have the same Mrs. Fields cookie book. However I have a box of Trader Joes Brownie truffle baking mix that is currently in queue. – Mark

    I made the brownies from the mix (add two eggs and a stick of butter). Fantastically delicious results. These were paired with vanilla ice cream, fresh strawberries chocolate fudge sauce and whipped cream. Mucho overload! I highly recommend this Trader Joe brownie mix.

      Very good to know. I mentioned to my mom you were going to try that brownie mix and she was very well aware of this brand and type of brownie mix. She said it IS out of this world! Now I’m going to have to try it. Thanks for the recommendation. Not sure my friendship brownie recipe will cut the mustard, but oh well, it’s worth a try as well.
