There are times when you feel like all that you will ever need is to curl up in bed the whole day, and have a good cry.
And wish you still had that plate of brownie bites to comfort you.
Fudgey Cocoa Brownies
(adapted from here)
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
- Preheat oven to 180C.
- In a medium bowl, combine melted butter and cocoa powder. Stir until cocoa powder is dissolved.
- Add sugar and mix well.
- Add eggs one at a time, and stir well.
- Stir in flour, vanilla and salt until just combined.
- Bake in an 8 inch square pan for approximately 25mins.
p/s: I baked this in a shallow 9 inch pan, so that the brownies won’t have much height. I then proceeded to cut them into small bite-sized slices, hence the ‘brownie bites’ term.
p/p/s: Sorry for the rather down entry. Things will look up soon. In the meantime, do give this recipe a try; you won’t regret it, I promise.

hang in there dear.
everything will be better soon, i promise.
*uyuks*
oh yes, i have days like that. there’s not a thing wrong with having a good cry, or with drowning your sorrows in chocolate. lots and lots of chocolate…
We all go through days like these. If you need anything at all …I’m just an e-mail or comment away. I hope your feeling better.
Sorry you don’t feel all that. But crying is usually a good remedy.
Those brownies must have helped a lot. They look very tempting and delicious and they are making me hungry!
Hope you feel better soon!

A good cry is a good way to de-stress yourself.
Hope the summer weather will chase away any blues you have.
