Aunt Sylvias Brownies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F; spray a 9-by-13-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Stir together the chocolate-hazelnut spread, flour and eggs in a medium bowl. Pour into the prepared pan and spread the mixture to the edges.
• Bake until the surface looks set and slightly crisp, about 25 minutes. Let cool slightly, then cut into squares and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a small bowl, mix together the corn flakes, 1/4 cup of the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt, and boil the noodles according to package instructions. Drain, and transfer to a large bowl, and toss with the 1/3 cup butter.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine the cream cheese and remaining 1/2 cup sugar and mix, using a hand held mixer, until light and airy. Add the eggs, milk, and nectar and continue mixing until fully incorporated. Stir the cheese mixture evenly into the noodles. Transfer the noodle mixture into a buttered 9- x 13- x 2-inch baking dish. (Scrap the bowl with a rubber spatula to get all the custard.) Scatter the top of the pudding with the corn flake mixture. Bake until set and golden brown, about 1 hour. Set aside to cool slightly before serving.

Steps:

• Grease the bottom and sides of an eight-cup souffle dish or a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan. Line with brown paper; grease the paper.
• Combine the walnuts, pecans, brazil nuts, dates, apricots, prunes, candied fruits, raisins and cherries in a large bowl. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt over the nuts and fruits. Toss lightly until well coated.
• Beat the eggs, sugar and vanilla in a medium-size bowl with an electric mixer until the mixture is fluffy and light. Pour over the nut mixture. Stir gently to combine.
• Fill the prepared dish or pan, pressing the cake mixture firmly. Bake at 275 degrees for about two hours. (If the top is browning too quickly, cover with buttered foil.)
• Remove the cake to a wire rack. Spoon one-quarter cup of brandy over the cake. Let stand one hour. Invert the cake and peel off the paper. Turn it right side up and let it stand on the wire rack until it is completely cooled. Place the wire rack in a shallow pan and spoon the remaining one-half cup of brandy over the cake.
• To store, wrap the cake in cheesecloth that has been soaked in brandy. Wrap in heavy-duty aluminum foil or store in tightly covered container.

Steps:

• Heat 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, then transfer to a large bowl. Whisk in eggs, one at a time. Stir in vanilla.
• In a separate bowl, combine sugar, flour, nuts and salt. Add to the cocoa-butter mixture. Stir until just combined.
• Pour into a greased 8 x 8-inch-square pan. Bake 30 to 35 minutes. Do not overbake; the brownies should be gooey. Let cool, then cut into bars.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.
• Pour into a 9 x 13 pan.
• Bake at 325 F until edges begin to pull away from the pan and toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean (about 25-30 min).
• Cool completely. Ice with frosting, if desired. Cut into squares.
