UNCLE DREW'S SKILLET BROWNIES

Uncle Drew's Skillet Brownies image

A recipe my Uncle Drew brought with him when he visited for our family reunion. I think we made about five batches of these rich, chocolaty goodies over the course of his stay! Top the brownie batter with shredded coconut or nuts if desired.

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

¾ cup butter
2 cups white sugar
¾ cup cocoa powder
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 eggs, lightly beaten
½ cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch oven-proof skillet.
Place butter in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until melted, about 30 seconds. Add sugar and cocoa powder to butter and stir. Heat butter-cocoa mixture in microwave until sugar is dissolved and mixture is smooth, about 30 seconds.
Mix vanilla extract into butter-cocoa mixture. Stir eggs into butter-cocoa mixture; add flour and stir until batter is well mixed. Pour batter into the prepared skillet.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the brownies comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes.
