This brownie recipe is, in my opinion, the best ever. It's not a fancy brownie recipe like killer brownies. This recipe needs no gimmick like caramel. It is a stand alone classic.
Grocery List
Butter
Cocoa
Eggs
Vanilla
Sugar
Flour
Walnuts
Chocolate Chips
Salt
Melt: 1-1/2 stick of butter and one cup of cocoa. Stir and let cool
Beat: 4 eggs with an electric mixer until they are foamy. Add 1/4
teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Keep beating.
Gradually add 2 cups of sugar. Keep beating. It will become really
fluffy like frosting. Stop Mixer and add cocoa/butter mixture. Just barely
mix this in. Then add 1 cup of sifted flour and just barely mix it in also.
Then add 1 cup of walnut pieces. Finish mixing with a spatula
scraping in all the stuff stuck to the sides and bottom of the bowl. Pour into a
greased 9 X 13 pan and back for 25 minutes at 350 F. Let cool.
Frosting:
In a small sauce pan on low heat melt 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, 2
tablespoons of water and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Stir constantly until
it is perfectly melted and smooth. Add 1/4 stick of butter, keep stirring
until it is melted. Pour evenly over the brownies tilting the pan so that it
spreads evenly. Sprinkle with some walnut pieces on top. Leave uncovered
until the glaze is dry and set up. Cut after completely cooled.
