One of the reasons I love this time of year is Halloween. For the candy, for the weather, and the spooky scares 🙂 I enjoy horror movies and covered lots of movies last year on my blog and thought I’d share one of my favorite posts from then on some of my favorite movie monsters. You can check it out here.

As part of the tour, participants are sharing favorite recipes. We love to make the following Katherine Hepburn brownies. They are truly moist and delicious. The recipe originally appeared in a magazine article about Katherine Hepburn.

Ingredients:

  • 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter
  • 2 squares unsweetened chocolate
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Preparation:

1. Melt together 1 stick butter and 2 squares unsweetened chocolate and take the saucepan off the heat. Stir in 1 cup sugar, add 2 eggs and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and beat the mixture well. Stir in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt. (In the original recipe, 1 cup chopped walnuts is added here as well.) Bake the brownies in a buttered and floured 8-inch-square pan at 325°F for about 40 minutes. You can cut these brownies into squares, once they have cooled, and eat them out of the pan, but it is so much nicer to pile them on a fancy plate, from which people are going to eat them with their hands anyway. If you want to smarten up your act you can put a square of brownie on a plate with a little blob of créme fraîche and a scattering of shaved chocolate.
