Default CHEWY brownies


Notbob I have not made these brownies myself, but they are from a Taste
Of Home annual book I have, and I've always had good luck with the
recipes from them. I can't guarantee these will be the texture you are
wanting, as I've never made them, but going by the ingredients and the
picture, they don't look like a "traditional cake brownie", and they
make a small pan, so if they are not "chewy" enough for your taste buds,
then toss them out to the birds, but I think they'd be worth a try. If
you do make it, let me know how they turned out? Myself I've never been
that fond of any brownies (especially the ones from a mix) but if I do
have any, I want them to be soft and cake-like AND frosted. I can take
nuts, or leave them in a brownie.

Walnut Brownies

1/4 cup shortening
3 tbsp. baking cocoa
1 egg
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup flour
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. salt
1/4 cup chopped walnuts

In small bowl, cream shortening and cocoa. Beat in egg, sugar and
vanilla. Add dry ingredients gradually and beat on low speed of electric
mixer until thoroughly combined. Stir in walnuts. Pour in a greased 8
in. x 4 in. x 2" loaf pan. Bake at 350º about 20 minutes, or until
toothpick inserted near the middle, comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire
rack and cut into 8 brownies.
