Katharine Hepburn's Brownies
Read Katharine Hepburn's brownie recipe and a nice little story about how she passed it along to a fellow New Yorker.

Here's the recipe, since the New York Times link will die in a few days.


KATHARINE HEPBURN'S BROWNIES

½ cup cocoa
1 stick butter
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
¼ cup flour
1 cup broken-up walnuts or pecans
1 teaspoon vanilla
pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Melt butter in saucepan with cocoa and stir until smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool for a few minutes. Mix in eggs, one at a time. Add sugar, flour, nuts, vanilla and salt. Pour into a greased 8x8 square pan. Bake 40 minutes. "Don't overbake!'' They should be gooey. Let cool (an essential step) and cut into bars.
