Swedish Recipes – A Bus On A Dusty Road

My grandparents owned a bakery in downtown Stockholm for many years. We grew up with our Mormor (that is what we call my mother's mother in Swedish) visiting us in the states and baking all her delicious Swedish recipes. This recipe is one of our traditional family Swedish recipes and one of my all-time favorite brownie recipes.

Very Easy Brownie Recipe This is one of the easiest brownie recipes out there and it is so much better than the box brownie recipes. There is no need for you to buy the box brownies any more and this recipe is as easy to make as the box recipes. And it is so much fresher as this uses ONLY fresh and natural ingredients. This is because this recipe has been used for many years, even before the time baking with baking soda or baking powder became popular. One difference you may notice is that the brownies will not rise as much if they had baking powder in it. But they are still very moist and delicious.

A lot of people make a mistake in that they will overbake their brownies and then wonder why they are dry. In fact if you want your brownies to be a bit gooey, then underbake them a bit. The Swedes will bake these in small muffin pans. If you decide to use small muffin pans for these then cut the baking time.
