Smokin' Brownies ( Not the kind you think)


Ingredients
2-3 wood chips
2 oz. chopped pecans
4 oz. unsalted butter
4 oz. semisweet chocolate chips
2 large eggs
2 oz. pastry flour
1 oz. cocoa powder
6.5 oz. granulated sugar

1. Put wood chips on stove or grill until smoking. Let your husband do this. Makes them feel so manly to play with wood...... and a fire. ;)

2. Place pecans in a metal colander type bowl, then place it in a much larger bowl. Drop the wood chips into the larger bowl, surrounding the pecan bowl. Cover immediately with foil and let smoke for five minutes.

3. Melt butter and chocolate chips over a double boiler. Slowly whisk in eggs.

4. Sift together remaining ingredients and pecans. Gently incorporate into the chocolate.

5. Pour final mixture into a cast-iron skillet (or regular ol’ pan), filling about two inches deep.

6. Bake at 325° for approximately 40 minutes.

7. Serve warm, topped with your favorite ice cream, whipped cream, wine infused fudge sauce, or anything else ya want.

So there’s the scoop.

This recipe came from one of my daughters friends, Chef Doug Brown. She emailed me at 6 am begging me to make this for her. Little shit. She knows I'll do it.
