During quarantine, my 13 year old kept in touch with her friends by having baking conference calls. It was 3 of them with us moms “helping” out. I’m so glad I was allowed to join because I really don’t want to know what brownies with 11 cups of flour and egg shells taste like.

Olivia’s Quarantine Brownies

Makes 12 servings

Ingredients

2 cups of chocolate chips
1 cup of butter
1 1/4 cup of flour
1 cup of sugar
2 teaspoon baking powder
4 large eggs
1/3 cup chocolate chips

Directions

Melt the chocolate chips and butter in a double boiler.
Combine the dry ingredients and stir them into the chocolate mixture.
Stir in the eggs.
Pour batter into an 9x13 parchment lined baking dish and bake in a preheated 350F oven for approximately 30-40 minutes. We used an 8x8 dish last time when we made 1/2 the recipe.
You can sprinkle the 1/3 cup chocolate chips on top before baking, or wait until the brownies come out of the oven, that way they’ll melt and you can spread the chocolate over the top.
