Caitlin N's brownie om nom!!

Last Wednesday, I made a chocolate brownie for my neighbours and there was lots left so I gave a piece to Mr Leith. He said it was delicious! Stay tuned for the recipe.
125g butter
1/4 cup cocoa
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Heat the oven to 180 C. Melt the butter until liquid in a medium sized pot then take off heat. Using a fork, mix in the cocoa, sugar, eggs, salt and vanilla. Sift in the flour and baking powder add the chopped nuts if you like and stir until evenly mixed.

Pour into a 20-23cm square tin lined with baking paper. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until firm in the centre. (Don't worry if mixture is higher at the edges than the middle- it still tastes fine!)
Cut into pieces when cold. Freeze for lunches.
