Holiday Bownies 2009

Both of the Brownie recipes are basically the same and I'm sure if one were to leave out the extra goodies they would be a mighty fine brownie all by itself.

Cherry and Coconut Brownies
2 cups white sugar
1 cup canola oil (or butter)
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 Eggs
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt (table salt will work)
14 oz Jar Maraschino Cherries halved (reserve the juice for 7up or other cocktails)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup shredded coconut

Grease 9" x 13" pan
Bake at 350 F for 25-30 minutes



Peppermint Brownies

1 cup white sugar
1 cup canola oil (or butter)
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 Eggs (beaten well before adding)
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt (table salt will work)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 package(6 oz) of 12 regular size candy canes smashed **it is important to pulverize the candy
canes because any large chunks will melt leaving undesirable holes or voids in the brownies**

Grease 9" x 13" pan
Bake at 350 F for 25 - 30 minutes
