One Bowl Cocoa Brownies

Assalamualaikum everyone.

Alhamdulillah just before Eid I finally bought myself a new oven since my oven breadmaker went 'sick' last Ramadhan (last year that is).Throughout the whole year I only made steamed cake and just simple baked items with my very very old oven.So I was super excited to use this new oven of mine.

Hazha min fadhli Rabbi

I chose this oven not because of the brand.I don't even know this brand well.But mainly because  this was the only on top of counter oven that had numbers for temperature.Most ovens you just have to guess when you want to choose your temperature.And because of the size obviously.I was always so envious when  a recipe I chose called for me to use a 9"x13" tray coz my old oven couldn't even fit a 10" pan.

So enough of blabbering about my oven.

I want to share here a brownies recipe I tried recently.

It was quite good. I really liked that when you munch you can taste the chocolate chips in between.

Lets check out the recipe.
