Mom's Best Brownies image

My mom has made a variation of these brownies as long as I can remember. She doesn't know where she got the recipe from. I substituted whole wheat flour and honestly no one can tell it isn't made with white flour! You can substitute plain applesauce for part of the oil, but I like to use 1 c oil (as my mom does) with no applesauce - faster to measure, and it is a dessert after all! I hope you enjoy!

Time 35m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup cocoa
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup unrefined coconut oil or 1 cup butter, melted
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
chopped nuts (optional)
peanut butter (optional)
chocolate chips (optional)
flavored chips (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease and 'flour' 9x13" pan, using cocoa powder instead of flour. (This will eliminate any white spots on bottom of brownies).
  • In a large bowl, stir together cocoa, flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
  • Add oil, eggs, vanilla, and any optional ingredients. Mix well, stopping as soon as all ingredients are incorporated - excessive mixing will cause a cake-like texture.
  • Pour into prepared 9x13" pan.
  • Bake at 350 for 27-30 minutes. Test with toothpick, the brownies are done when no batter clings to it. Remove slightly earlier if you like a gooey, eat with a fork brownie.
