You mean...share??8-0 Found it! originally typed into the old
computer, and lost with the hard drive. I think it's a combination of
the KA Whole Wheat flour brownies and yours. Or maybe it's just mine.

Definately time to type it in again. The only copy I still have has
been drizzled over.

Chocolate Almond Brownies

1 cup whole wheat flour
2 cups ganulated sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup coarse ground almonds
1/2 cup fine ground almonds
1/4 teaspoon salt, optional
1 stick butter, melted
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Preheat oven to 350F

In a large glass bowl, melt butter mixed with oil in the microwave,
about 5 minutes on half-power.

Add flour, sugar, cocoa, ground almonds and salt. Stir to combine.
Add eggs, one at a time, stirring after each addition. Add extracts,
stir until mixed

Scrape batter into 9" x 9" pan greased or lined with parchment paper.
Bake 30 minutes. Allow them to cool, then store in refrigerator for
an hour before cutting.

If you like them less fudgy, add 5-10 minutes to the baking time.
