Cookin' Up Creations

Fudgy One-Pot Brownies from Rachel Ray
Ingredients
1 1/2 stick of butter
1 3/4 c sugar
1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
3 eggs
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 c flour
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8" square baking pan with foil, leaving a 2" overhang. Coat the foil with cooking spray. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Off the heat whisk in sugar, vanilla and salt. Whisk until creamy, about 1 minute. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well between additions. Add the cocoa powder and flour, stirring until just blended. Pour into pan. Bake the brownies until a tester inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 40-45 minutes. Cool in the pan set on a wire rack. Using the foil overhang lift the brownies out of the pan and cut them into squares.
