Trace an 8 inch circle on a piece of waxed paper, using a cake pan as a
guide. Place on a stack of 6 more pieces waxed paper. Using the traced

paper rounds. Heat oven to 375 F. Have 2 cookie sheets and an 8 inch
springform pan ready. Brownie Layers: Whisk cocoa, water, egg and
vanilla in a small bowl until blended and smooth. In a large bowl with
electric mixer, beat butter and sugar about 3 minutes until pale and
fluffy. Beat in cocoa mixture (batter may look curdled) With mixer on
low speed, gradually add flour until well blended (batter will be very
stiff). Spread the 7 rounds of waxed paper out on countertop. Drop a
levely 1/3 cup batter in center of each round. Divide remaining 1/3 cup
batter between rounds (about 2 teaspoons each). Moisten a cookie sheet
with water. Place 2 waxed paper rounds on sheet (the water will stop them
from slipping). Spread batter almost to edges of rounds. Bake 8 minutes
or until surface looks dry and set but is slightly springy to the touch.

baked layers on cookie sheet on wire rack 3 minutes. Put layers on waxed
paper on a wire rack. Let cool completely. Bake and cool remaining
