Directions:
Classic brownies, in the grand Hershey's cocoa tradition. Perfect for a bake sale.
In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt.
Melt butter, and stir in cocoa. Mix butter/cocoa mixture with sugar. Add eggs. Add flour mixture in parts, a bit at a time. Beat until smooth. Blend in milk and vanilla. Stir in nuts, if desired.
Pour into 9x13 baking dish.
Bake 25 - 30 min. at 350°F, until a toothpick comes out clean and brownie pulls away slightly from the sides of the pan.
