recipe time


This little plate here is one of those experiments that went really well. I usually use home made glaze, made by me, and stoneware clay. For decorating reasons, this plate is low-fire earthenware, with commercial decorating 'paints' for glazes. I struggled to figure out how best to use earthenware, it is very different from the whole stoneware process, and I am not a drawer or painter. BUT, this turned out well, the little drawn piggy, and so I need try some more.

OK, BROWNIES, so simple,from the Hershey's syrup people, which usually goes on ice cream or in milk:
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup Hershey's syrup
1 1/4 cup flour
1 cup plus more chocolate chips

1-preheat oven to 350
2-soften butter a bit in the 'wave, beat with sugar in a bowl. Add chocolate syrup, eggs, flour, beat well. Pour in 1 cup choc. chips, stir. Pour batter into typical brownie pan (mine here is a 2 quart pyrex rectangle)
3-bake 30-35 minutes in greased dish--done when the edges start pulling away from the pan and the middle comes clean when a sharp knife is pushed in. Cool on wire rack. WHAT I DO when it comes out of the oven is sprinkle as much as another cup of choc, chips over the top to slightly melt on there....this is soo easy and tasty.
