Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixer bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda.
-
Incorporate Wet Ingredients:
- Add the shortening and the oatmeal mixture (that you set aside earlier) to the dry ingredients in the mixer bowl.
- Pour in the vanilla extract.
-
Mix Well:
- Beat the mixture on low speed just until everything is mixed together.
- Increase the speed to medium and beat for about 2 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl frequently.
-
Add Eggs:
- Incorporate the eggs into the mixture, ensuring they are well mixed.
-
Prepare Baking Pan:
- Grease a 9x13x2 inch pan to prevent sticking.
-
Bake:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
-
Bake Until Done:
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 35 minutes, or until the squares are fully cooked. You can test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center – if it comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs, they’re ready.
-
Cool:
- Allow the squares to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- Then, carefully turn them out onto a cooling rack and let them cool completely.
-
Optional Topping:
- For an extra touch of sweetness, sprinkle powdered sugar over the cooled squares.
-
Serve:
- Once cooled and optionally dusted with powdered sugar, cut the squares into desired sizes and serve.
