How to Make Granny's Chocolate Crunch

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) or 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  3. Add 1 cup (2 sticks) of melted unsalted butter to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. The mixture will be crumbly.
  4. Press the mixture firmly into a greased 15x10 inch shallow baking pan or a similar sized baking dish.
  5. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes, or at 375°F (190°C) for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let cool slightly in the pan before frosting.
  7. While the crunch is still warm, frost evenly with your favorite chocolate icing (recipe suggestions below).
  8. Cut into squares while the chocolate icing is still slightly soft for easier cutting and serving.
