I have an unbeatable brownie recipe that calls for a stick and a half of butter (for a 9x13) and I was actually shocked to discover that this version was every bit as good with considerably less fat and work. Some tips to get an absolutely decadent, melt-in-your mouth brownie texture: whip the eggs (I used two whole eggs) with the sugars for 4 or 5 minutes. This will airate the eggs and give a looser texture to baked goods that have less fat. Add the rest of the liquid ingredients, then combine the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt in a sifter. In thirds, incorporate the flour mixture into the sugar mixture by FOLDING until just combined. Also, use cake flour for a finer crumb. Just up the amount a Tbl. or so. You will not be disappointed! This is a million times better than a box mix and a heck of a lot healthier! Next time I will try replacing some of the oil with applesauce and experimenting with the sugar amount to make it a little more guilt free. I'm so glad I found this brownie recipe!
