Brownies (Carrie)

I found this hand written recipe in my recipe box and have NO idea where it came from. They are very gooey and dark chocolate flavor just like the store-bought mixes. It was a little bitter the first time and I believe the Hershey's European Cocoa I use is just a little more powerful, so I reduced the cocoa just a bit and it was perfect! -Carrie

So, we made this recipe as is quite a few times and decided that it was too greasy... it seemed saturated in oil, so over the past 6 months or so we have been tweaking it. This is our recipe if anyone is interested. This is the doubled version for a 9x13 pan.

1/2 c. butter
2 c. sugar

4 eggs
3/4 c. cocoa
1/4 c. oil
2 t. vanilla

1 c. flour

Convection 300', 30 minutes.
