My Favorite Brownie Recipe

I’ve made brownies many times, but there is one recipe which I consider the best. Everyone loves the recipe, which is a perfect combination of fudgy and crispy.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup melted butter
  • 3 cups sugar  (white)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 ½ cups flour
  • 1 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a deep baking dish (9×13 is the preferred size).
  2. Combine the butter, sugar, and vanilla in a bowl. Beat in the eggs until blended.
  3. Gradually stir the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the egg mixture until blended. Stir in the chocolate chips. Spread the batter evenly into the baking pan.
  4. Bake in the oven for 35 to 40 minutes. Cool pan on rack before cutting.
  5. Enjoy!

3 amazing podcasts for kids

I have been listening to a lot of podcasts during the quarantine and they all make me laugh and giggle. Here are 3 of my favorite podcasts to listen to.

  1. Brains On!

In each episode, the host, Molly Bloom, will answer questions about one topic with a kid host. There are also additional fun activities like the mystery sound. You can send in questions and mystery sounds as well. It’s really fun and I always learn a lot of things after each show.

Did you know that my question was featured in a episode? It was in the episode about color! This is the episode

2. The Big Fib

In this podcast, the hosts, Deborah Goldstein and Ethan Berlin (L.I.S.A), invite 2 adults to talk about a topic and 1 child to guess which adult is telling the truth and which one is telling a lie. Along the way are hilarious comments and sound-effects. I really enjoy this show and totally recommend it to you.

3. Smash Boom Best

In each episode, there are 2 debaters, each arguing for a different topic. A kid host listens to each round of debating and marks a point for the side which they think won that round. I love the different rounds of debating and how fierce it can get. It’s really a great podcast.

These are some of my favorite podcasts which I think you should listen to. What are some of your favorite podcasts?
