[QUOTE]Originally posted by Debbie: [QB] No offense Giggle Girl....but while your recipe is no doubt fantastic, I would prefer that recipes posted be posted by people that have actually accomplished cooking them in Egypt. That way if I need to know where to buy an ingredient you can tell me. If I have a question regarding my gas oven or stove, it too can be answered. So, in light of that thought, where do I get essence of vanilla and the Dark Chocolate in Cairo? I don't doubt that they are here, but what store carries them, and are they printed in English as such? Or what do I ask for in Arabic? And as long as I'm asking....is there such a thing here as Baking Soda? I mean like good old Arm and Hammer? What's it called? When I go for Baking Powder, that is even difficult to get the right stuff...what they sell here as Baking Powder is sweet, isn't it? Also, do you guys really use a scale to weigh out the grams of each ingredient? How many cups is all that equal to? (<---- sez the metrically challenged American) [QUOTE]Originally posted by GiggleGirl: [b] What's amusing about a guy that likes cooking?? Good on you I say. Anyway, I have a brownie recipe...it always works for me. So, here goes. 250g softened butter. 500g sugar 3 eggs 1 tsp vanilla essence 125g dark chocolate 125g sifted flour 1/2 tsp salt 125g chopped nuts (almonds are best I find) Cream half of the butter with the sugar. Add the eggs one at a time and beat until light. stir in the vanilla. Put the leftover butter and the chocolate in a basin (heatproof) and stir until melted. Cool and then add with the butter and sugar mix. Then, stir in the flour, salt and nuts. Put into a greased shallow tin and bake in a preheated oven at 180 C for 45 mins. Let it cool and cut into squares and eat!! Yum yum...[/b][/QUOTE] [This message has been edited by Debbie (edited 27 April 2004).] [/QB][/QUOTE]
