Peter is an avid outdoorsman, but also an incredible cook. He stopped by my house one day with a tray of these brownies. They were slightly undercooked and tasted like absolute heaven. You can top the brownies with butterscotch chips just before baking if desired.

Instructions

FIRST Preheat oven 325°F. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.

NEXT Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add sugar and vanilla and gently whisk in eggs. Remove from heat and gradually stir in dry ingredients.

LAST Pour batter into an buttered, 8 inch baking pan. Bake for 40 minutes or until just undercooked.
