Easy Brownies

Last night was quite an accomplishment.  I cannot bake for the life of me.  I mess up every recipe, and every time I say "Oh, lets try again", I find myself failing, and then sticking to premade mixes.  Yesterday, after speaking to my bridesmaids who are now doing "bridal bootcamp" to get in shape for the wedding, I was all pumped to go to the gym and start working out.  As soon as I got home I thought, brownies are better.... and away I went looking for an easy recipe that I would hopefully not mess up.  These were it!  They came out well, and even though I left my oven on by accident for a hour after they were done (Chris was pissed - I burst out laughing, as this is the 5th time in 2 weeks I've done that). Enjoy!

Ingredients:

2 cups white sugar
1 cup butter
1/2 cup cocoa powder (I use Hershey's)
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 eggs
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease a 9 x 13 inch pan.

Melt butter and then mix ingredients into medium bowl in the order listed above.

Bake for 25-35 minutes.  Let cool then serve.

These are sitting on top of the oven, which is still on. HAHAHA.
