Mom's Swedish Brownies

No, they aren't from Sweden, and no, neither are we. I have no idea why they are called this, but they are like crack if you make them correctly.

Stuff we think are in them:

  • 2 cups of flour (we think): She never really measured it precisely, so guess or buy one of those things that tell you how much something is.
  • 2 cups of sugar: Again, no idea if this is accurate, but hey, let's go with it. What's the worst that can happen? Let's not think about that.
  • 2 sticks of butter: My mom didn't distinguish between butter and margarine, so we think you need the fake butter made from oil, not churned cow juice.
  • 2 unhatched chicken fetuses.
  • 1 Tbsp of Vanilla: I use way more. I don't drink, so this is the only alcohol I consume, so go wild. If they taste like crap, tone it down next time.
  • 1/4 teaspoon of Baking powder: So here is the thing—my mom had the same container of baking powder for our entire lives, so you can probably leave this out or use less.
  • 1 Kilo of Powder Sugar: This is will insure you look like you were living in the right era when you eat them.

Now do this:

  1. Put every thing except the Kilo of Powder Sugar onto a big ass bowl and think about your childhood trauma and beat the crap out of it until you can't tell it apart
  2. Take 9 x 13 glass dish and lubricate it like its your first time
  3. Dump the bowl of stuff into the fully lubed dish
  4. Take your kilo and make it rain like its cocaine in the 80's
  5. Shove the dish in the oven at a hot temperature. We have no fucking idea—she didn't say or we didn't listen.

You need to being wearing black so you can look like you just escaped a drug bust after you eat them.
