Today I was so excited to go to the salon and get a cut and colour - I have been growing my locks since July and it was time for some personal pampering! The end result was a disaster - too dark, too short with odd jaggedy bangs that make me look like some crazy cat lady and nowhere like the hip Mom I aspire to be!My solution - time to try this one dish brownie recipe I got from my friend, Christine. They are easy to make and taste amazing. You don't need to be having the ultimate bad hair day to enjoy xo!
Christine's One Dish Brownies
INGREDIENTS: Batter
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1/2 cup flour
1/3 cup Dutch cocoa
1 cup granulated white sugar
1/4 tsp. baking powder
INGREDIENTS: Icing
1/3 cup butter, softened
2 Tbsp. corn syrup
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/3 cup Dutch cocoa
1 cup icing sugar
3-4 tsp. hot water
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a 8" square baking dish. Add batter ingredients to the buttered baking dish, stirring to form a smooth batter. Bake 20 - 25 minutes and set aside to cool.
Meanwhile, prepare the frosting by stirring together butter, corn syrup and vanilla, and then adding cocoa and icing sugar; thinning with hot water to form a creamy consistency. Once the brownies are cool, frost and serve - amazingly delicious!
