Killer Brownies

• 1 cup butter (can use shortening, or 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup margarine)
• 4oz (4 squares) unsweetened chocolate
• 3 eggs, beaten lightly
• 2 cups sugar
• 1 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 2 cups chopped walnuts (or pecans) or 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or a mixture of both in generous amounts.

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease and flour 9”x13” baking pan. 
2. Melt the butter (margarine or shortening, if using) and chocolate together over a double boiler or low heat, Set aside to cool.. 
3. In a medium bowl, mix together eggs, sugar, and flour.
4. Add the vanilla, and milk to the butter and chocolate mixture. 
5. Put the egg, sugar and flour mixture into the butter chocolate mixture and mix well.

Note

• The secret to this recipe is to trust your oven and the 25-minute baking time. DO NOT test for doneness like for cakes and DO NOT overbake. The brownies are supposed to come out soft, gooey, and yummy.
