The Ultimate Brownies

The Ultimate Brownie is my absolute favorite brownie. It is tall like a cakey-brownie, but is dense like a fudgy-brownie.

INGREDIENTS:
8- 1 ounce squares of unsweetened chocolate
1 cup butter
5 eggs
3 cups sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
1-1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2-1/2 cups chopped pecans or walnuts, toasted (optional)
I add chocolate chips instead

PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 13 pan.
Melt chocolate and butter in a saucepan over low heat; set aside. In a mixer, beat eggs, sugar and vanilla at high speed for 10 minutes**. You don't have to mix for 10 minutes but it is nice if you have a stand mixer.

Blend in chocolate mixture, flour and salt until just mixed.
This is one of the best brownie recipes.

Let cool and then cut your brownies with a large cookie cutter. I like to use a heart shape or lip shape cutters.

Serve with homemade vanilla icecream or your favorite brand icecream.
Garnish with a fresh blend of strawberry syrup or store bought drizzled over the top
with a fresh strawberry fanned out!

You will not go back to a box recipe! these are so simple and much easier to cut. If you do have to use a box my favorite brownie is the one with the hershey packet.

Hmmmm..... Hmmmm... Good!
