Rich Cocoa Brownies. Yesterday, when I was tidying my kitchen’s cabinet I found a box of unused cocoa powder and it is going to expire soon! I think I bought it few years ago and I have totally forgot about it! 😛 In order not to waste the cocoa powder, I decided to make something with the cocoa powder. I quickly take out my ipad. As usual, I get suggestion from “Mr Google” (I used google search engine 😉 ). After scanned through a list of recipes of cocoa powder, I chose a recipe from Hershey’s Kitchens,  Fudgey Special Dark Brownies. I didn’t follow the original recipe but I made some changes to the recipe. It’s still taste nice and I call it the Rich Cocoa Brownies! I hope you like it too. 🙂
