Brownies

What you need: 

2 cups flour (I use enriched and whole wheat), divided
1 cup water
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup baking cocoa
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup chopped nuts, optional
1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips, optional

What you do: 

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and grease an 11x7" pan. Boil water and 1/2 cup of the flour over low heat, stirring constantly, until it reaches the consistency of a thin gluey paste. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
2. Mix vegan brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, vanilla, cocoa and oil. Then add the flour and water mixture. Mix well.
3. Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, nuts, and chocolate chips.
4. Spread mixture into prepared pan. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a knife can be inserted and come out clean.
This was a really easy, and really tasty recipe. I gave some to my friends and they fell in love with them. They keep asking me to make more. I thought of maybe putting some chocolate frosting on them, but they were perfect without it. Enjoy.'

SO HOW'D IT GO?

Wow, these are sooo delicious!  They're just like the real thing and have the perfect amount of gooey-ness.  I've made two batches within the past week and my non-vegan family keeps eating them all.  Too good.

Chocolaty goodness of yummy gooey magic!!!
I used whole wheat flour (*gasp*) and they still came out gooey and moist; not gritty like I was expecting. 5 stars. I made them for fathers day, and nonone knew they were vegan until the end.

I've been waiting for about a year to try this recipe.  Now I don't know how I could ever live without it.  They were so good and turned out perfect.  Lots of V-brownie recipes are too sludgy or too oily.  These ones taste just like the real thing.  I used half whole wheat flour and half white, too.  Still good.  Thanks, I'll be using this recipe often.
