Daniela’s Brownies

Daniels's brownies

This recipe is from Joan Nathan’s book The Children’s Jewish Holiday Kitchen. If you prefer, use butter instead of margarine.

Joan Nathan says: “My children like to visit my Aunt Lisl’s daughter-in-law, Dorothy, the way I used to visit Aunt Lisl. Dorothy doesn’t make butter cookies, but she does make brownies which she serves at Hanukkah and every Friday night, a perfect ending to a meat meal. The children help make the brownies and then take a few extra home in aluminum foil. They love them—without the nuts.”

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup unsifted flour
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder

  • 1/3 cup (2/3 stick) pareve margarine, melted
  • 2 oz. (2 squares) unsweetened chocolate, melted
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts
  • Confectioners sugar

Instructions
