Blonde Brownies

Whoever gave this to Grace got it from The Black and White Cookbook by the Wives of Holstein Farmers, published by the National Holstein-Friesian Association, 1978. It wasn't among the things I transcribed in 2013. Carol and I found it when we went through the box in 2024.

• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup butter

• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/2 package chocolate chips

Sift together flour, baking powder, soda and salt.

Spread in a greased 9 x 9 inch pan. Sprinkle chocolate chips over the top.

Bake at 350°F 20–25 minutes.
