The recipe is simple and quick and had lot of room to creativity. So here it is,

Baking powder: pinch
Salt: pinch
Cocoa powder: 1/3 cup
Wet:
Vegetable oil : ½ cup [or melted butter]
Eggs : 2 big
Vanilla extract : 4-5 drops
Optional:
Chopped walnuts or almonds [I used] or pistachios
MnMs
White choco chips
Macadamia nuts
Line baking
pan with baking sheet. I didn’t have it, so I used aluminum foil. Did not make
a difference.
Preheat oven
to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Mix oil,
sugar, vanilla extract and eggs. Beat them till it forms foamy mixture.
Add in
flour, cocoa powder and baking powder. Mix well. Beat for a minute or two.
Stir in
optional items. [you can also spread them on top of batter, your wish]
Pour into
baking pan and bake for 20-25 minutes.
Let the
brownies cool down. When you reach this stage when they are wearing nerd
glasses, dig in!!
This time for a change, I had couple of pieces of the sweet I baked myself. Couriered rest to darling sister! Lets see how she likes them.
