BROWNIES

2/3 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 cup olive oil

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 egg

1 egg white

2/3 cup flour (I substitute whole-wheat flour for half the flour in all recipes)

1/3 cup cocoa

1/3 cup chopped walnuts

½ teaspoon baking powder

Heat oven to 325 degrees. Spray square 8X8 inch pan with Pam. Mix brown sugar, margarine, vanilla, egg and egg white. Stir in remaining ingredients. Spread in pan.

Bake until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool and cut into 2" squares. Makes 16 brownies.

I make these often; one brownie with 1/4 cup of ice cream is heavenly, and one of Cliff’s favorite desserts.
