Ginger double chocolate brownies

Tomorrow the UW Horticulture Society is having a movie 'n ice cream night. We are going to be watching The Secret Life of Plants, a bunch of time-lapse photography of plants. It promises to be fascinating. The club is supplying ice cream (Babcock Hall, of course), and members are supposed to bring a dessert. I'm going to make brownies, because they compliment ice cream perfectly. So tonight I'm experimenting with a 1/2 batch, to make sure ginger brownies are not too weird. Here is the full recipe:

  • 4 oz unsweetened chocolate
  • 8 tlb butter (1 stick)
  • 4 tlb unsweetened cocoa
  • 1 cu sugar
  • 1 cu brown sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cu flour
  • dash of cinnamon
  • dash of nutmeg
  • 2? tlb ginger


Melt chocolate and butter in a double boiler (I stick a Pyrex measuring cup in a pot of boiling water)

Beat eggs, add vanilla, cocoa

combine eggs and chocolate.

add sugar, and spices

add flour

Cook at 350ยบ in greased foil-lined pan.
