My family has been making these for over 50 years, so I guess you could call them personally tried! Plus, they must be awesome - why else would we keep making them? And they are really easy and fast to make.





Brownies





2 ozs unsweetened chocolate


1/4 c butter (1/2 stick)


1 c sugar (I use a little less because I like them less sweet)


2 eggs


1 tsp vanilla


1/2 c flour


1/8 tsp salt


1/2 c chopped walnuts (or pecans) even better if you toast them first


1/2 c semisweet chocolate -- chunked from a bar (or chocolate chips if you don't have bar chocolate available)





Preheat oven to 325. Line 8 or 9 inch square pan with wax paper, butter paper. Melt unsweetened chocolate and butter in medium pan. Add sugar, eggs and vanilla, mix. Stir in flour, nuts, chunked semi-sweet chocolate and salt and pour into prepared pan. Bake about 25 minutes. (I go for slightly underbaked - that way they stay nice and chewy). Cool in pan on rack for 5 minutes, then flip over out of the pan, peel off the wax paper and continue to cool on rack. Eat them quick or cover them up tightly once cool so they stay chewy.What is seriously the best brownie and cookie recipes ever ?
