THE Brownies

It is a miracle I haven't posted this recipe before.....
they are THE brownies after all.

The thing is, everyone will try to tell you that their brownie recipe is the only one you will ever need.....but I am right. Duh.

Let me give you some advice though....don't share them with your boyfriend, don't offer them to your neighbours, and don't even think about bringing them to parties.
Because once a person has had one little taste of THE brownies, it is already too late, they are hooked.
And before you know people will call you in the middle of the night, some will bribe you to make them again and you'll be baking brownies till the end of your days.

Well, okay, I might have (totally not) exaggerated.

Do make those brownies.
Really.
You won't regret it, pinky promise!

Just one little thing before we start...this is a 3 bowl situation. I am sorry. I haven't figured out yet how to turn it into a one bowl recipe. You might be smarter than me.

Brownies (makes one small batch)
1/2 cup chopped dark chocolate
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1/2 cup chopped nuts (I used walnuts, almonds or hazelnuts would be yummy as well)

Whisk together the sugar and the eggs.
Melt the butter and chocolate on low heat.
Stir the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture.
Add the flour and cocoa powder.
Fold in the nuts.
Done.

Bake at 180C for about 25minutes or until the brownies are set and the top is shiny.

And don't leave just yet...I'm gonna drop some knowledge:
If you manage to keep some brownies for yourself (good on ya) resist the urge to eat the whole batch in one sitting.
Or else as soon as you wake from your sugar coma your tummy will ache like hell.
I am speaking from experience.

It is totally worth it.
