Chewy Gooey Brownies

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 c. vegetable oil
• 2 c. sugar
• 2 tsp. vanilla
• 3 eggs
• 1 c. flour
• 2/3 c. cocoa
• 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• walnuts, optional

DIRECTIONS:

Blend oil, sugar, and vanilla in mixing bowl. Add eggs and beat with spoon. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Stir into egg mixture. Do not over mix. Serves 12 people. Note: They are best when just gently blended. They become cake-like if beaten too much and won’t be gooey.
