MY MOM'S COCOA BROWNIES

By Lanai317

This is the old recipe from the back of the metal Hershey's Cocoa tin. It's simple to make with basic pantry ingredients. This is a thick, moist brownie that's not too cakey.

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted or vegetable oil
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
• 3 eggs
• 3/4 cup unsifted flour
• 1/2 cup Hershey’s cocoa
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powde

Preparation

Step 1

Spread in greased 8 inch square pan. Bake at 350 for 40 to 45 minutes, or until brownie begins to pull away from edges of pan. Cool; cut into squares.
