Brownies

Brownies

2/3 cup flour, sift once then measure. 

½ teaspoon baking powder

6 ½ tablespoons butter or shortening

2 squares chocolate, melted (I used an entire Baker's Chocolate bar, I'm assuming chocolate came in different quantities back in the day)

1 cup sugar

2 eggs, beaten

1 teaspoon vanilla

½ cup walnut meats broken

Mix together flour and powder sifting three times. Add butter to chocolate. Combine sugar and eggs. Add chocolate mixture, beating. Add flour and nuts. Pour into greased pan 8 x 8 x ½ inch and bake moderate oven, 350 for 35  28 minutes (mine were done in about 28). Cut into squares before removing from pan. Makes 20 brownies
