The Joy Of Brownies – We Love God!

We constantly want to justify ourselves before God, to be good enough without Christ. But God does not want us to trust in our goodness. He does not want us to make up for our past sins through present obedience. He does not want us to think that we are good enough to go to heaven by comparing ourselves to the Hitlers and Stalins of the world. Comparisons are useless when it comes to establishing righteousness before God. God crucified His one and only Son for our justification, and He wants us to trust in Him alone. When it comes to being justified, faith plus anything else is quicksand. The only ground for right standing before God is Christ Jesus grabbed ahold of by faith.

1/4	t	Salt
1	t	Vanilla
1	c	Sifted all-purpose flour

INSTRUCTIONS

Serve with vanilla or chocolate chip ice cream. If you really want to
indulge, add chocolate syrup or sauce to the ice cream and brownies.
Melt chocolate and butter over very low heat. Stir frequently. Remove
from heat and cool.  Preheat oven to 325Ã¸.  In a medium size bowl,
beat eggs until light. Continue beating, and  gradually add sugar and
salt until light and fluffy. Stir in vanilla  and chocolate-butter
mixture. Stir in the flour, then nut meats.  Baking options: For 9
giant brownies, bake in 9 x 9-inch pan; for 12  large brownies or 24
small ones, bake in 9 x 13-inch pan. Prepare  pans by greasing and
flouring. Bake 45-60 minutes depending on how  fudgy or cake-like you
prefer them). Don't bake beyond the point that  a toothpick comes out a
bit wet.  These can be served out of the pan. Allow to cool completely
before  cutting. To remove from pan, cool 15 minutes after removing
from  oven, then loosen edges and turn over as you would remove a cake.
Set  top up to cool completely.  Yield: 9 giant, 12 large or 24 small
brownies. Martina Boudreau, St.  Louis, MO  Randy Shearer  From
