Marnies Favorite Brownie Mix Recipe
Yield: 1 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
1 cup: All-purpose flour,
2 cup: Granulated sugar,
3/4 cup: Unsweetened cocoa,
1/2 tsp: Salt,
1 cup: Butter-flavored shortening,
Directions:
The following recipes and tips were in an article in the Food Day section
of the Oregonian. They are from Marnie Swedberg, author of "Marnies
Kitchen Shortcuts."
Makes 4 1/2 cups, enough for 1 batch of brownies
Combine flour, sugar, cocoa and salt; cut in shortening. Store in airtight
container at room temperature for up to 6 months.
To make brownies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat 4 eggs and 1 teaspoon
vanilla until foamy. Add 4 1/2 cups dry mix and 1 cup chopped nuts and stir
until well-blended. Pour into 9-by-13-inch pan. Bake for 25 minutes. Cool
and serve. Makes 24 brownies.
Tips:
* Store homemade mixes in airtight, moisture-proof containers or in
resealable freezer bags. Swedberg prefers sour cream and cottage cheese
containers; for large batches, she uses ice cream buckets and deli
containers.
* Mixes containing shortening or bread crumbs will stay fresh for six
months. Spice mixes will stay fresh longer, but tastes and aromas may
decline with age. Freezing extends shelf life.
* An empty shoe box works well as a "filing cabinet" for plastic freezer
bags filled with dry mixes.
* Label mixes as you prepare them. Include the name of the mix, date
assembled and use instructions. Try self-adhesive labels or a small square
of paper taped to the container.
* Assembly will go more quickly if you use two sets of measuring utensils:
one for dry ingredients and the other for shortening.
