Brownies--No Butter or Fresh Eggs

I haven't been to the grocery store in over five weeks. While a lot of stuff is available from Amazon.com, walmart.com, schwans.com and misfitsmarket.com, I can't get eggs or butter (butter can be obtained for a $30. cooler/dry ice shipping fee). This recipe uses powdered eggs and coconut oil (which are easily available for shipping).

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Ingredients

1 cup coconut oil (substituted for 1 cup softened butter)

1 cup white sugar

1 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

6 tablespoons egg powder and 7.5 tablespoons water (substitute for 3 eggs)

1 cup flour

2/3 cup cocoa

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

3/4 cup milk chocolate chips

3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Blend coconut oil, sugars and vanilla in mixing bowl.

Prepare the powdered eggs. This is my first time using these. Put the powder in a cup and add water. Stir and crush the powder until there are no lumps floating on top.

Add the "eggs" to the sugar mixture and mix.

Combine flour, cocoa and baking powder. Gradually add and stir.

Fold in chocolate chips.

Spread batter in a greased (Pam spray) 13" x 9" pan.

Bake for 19 minutes at 350 degrees F.

Cool, cut and eat :)
