SUMMARY
Yield 0 File under Cookies Brownies Bars

INSTRUCTIONS
BC member, jej, swears by the recipe from the Baker's Chocolate box for her brownies and I like all of her recipes. So I decided to try them. Here is what happened to me when I did.

4 squares Baker's Unsweetened Baking Chocolate
3/4 cup (1-1/2 sticks) unsalted butter or margarine
2 cups sugar
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup AP flour
1 cup chopped nuts (I used 1/2 cup walnuts)
2 squares Baker's Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate (I used 1/2 cup Ghirardelli chocolate chips and did not melt them)

Melt unsweetened chocolate and butter either in microwave or using the double-boiler method. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted.

Stir in sugar. Add eggs and vanilla; mix well. Just before it's thoroughly mixed, tip the bowl a bit so that about half of the mixture spills onto the floor. Say a few unrepeatable words. Get 2 more squares of the chocolate from the box and most of the leftover 2nd cube of butter from the original melting process and melt them in a measuring cup in the microwave. Add it into the leftover chocolate/butter/sugar mixture that did NOT spill onto the floor. Stir it well. Mix another egg and about 1/2 tsp. vanilla and mix it into the chocolate mixture along with another 1/2 cup sugar.

Stir in the flour, nuts and chocolate chips. Spread into a greased, foil-lined 13x9" baking pan.

Bake at 350F for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out with fudgy crumbs. DO NOT OVERBAKE. Cool in pan. Lift out of pan onto cutting board. Cut into 24 squares. Note: I forgot to line the baking pan with the foil. Wonder if these will ever come out?

Vow to try the recipe again without dumping half (or any) of it on the floor.
