brownies!

We got a new microwave oven recently. I have been wanting to prepare something in it. So finally I searched the net and found this easy recipe for brownies.

5 Minute Brownies:

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup cocoa

1. Cream sugar and butter together.

2. Add eggs and Vanilla. Mix well.

3. Stir flour and cocoa together, then add into the egg mixture. Stir well.

4. Grease a glass pie pan and then coat with sugar.

5. Pour brownie mixture into sugared pie pan.

6. Microwave for 4 1/2 to 5 minutes.


My mom is in charge of the kitchen at home. But she has never used a oven before. So, me n my mom set out to prepare these brownies. We mixed the butter and sugar. Both of us were excited. In my eagerness, i weighed and put the cocoa powder right into the butter sugar mixture.

We were in a fix coz we had to mix the flour and cocoa and add it later.

My mom is very sweet. She said it was ok and anyhow everything had to finally go into the bowl!!

And then we added flour. Soon we realized we hadn't put the egg-vanilla mixture!!!

Trying not to laugh and encouraging each other, we added eggs and vanilla essence.

We put the mixture in the oven and waited anxiously. We had used the oven only for re-heating. It was the first time we were actually cooking something in it.

After 5 min, we took out the brownie. Though it didn't taste anything like the brownies we have at restaurants, me and my mom enjoyed it thorougly!! :) Now we plan to make it often so that we can surprise my sister when she comes from Bombay (obviously with one that is prepared properly! :D )

P.s: Please add all the ingredients in the specified order.
