Killer Brownies
I got this recipe from a former boss because they are the best brownies I’ve ever had. They are sinfully good.

INGREDIENTS
- 3 eggs, beaten lightly
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup shortening (½ c. butter, ½ c. margarine, or all butter)
- 4 squares unsweetened chocolate (like Baker’s)
- 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
Preheat oven to 350° F; grease and flour 9”x13”x2” baking pan. Melt the butter and chocolate together; set aside. Put the eggs, sugar, and flour in a bowl and mix together;
Add the vanilla, and milk to the butter and chocolate mixture. Cream all ingredients together. Mix in the nuts/chocolate chips.
Pour into a greased 9”x13”x2” pan. Bake at 350° F about 25 minutes. If there is any secret to this recipe, it is: trust your oven and 25-minute baking time; do NOT test for doneness like for cakes and do NOT overbake…the brownies are supposed to come out soft, gushy, and yummy.
Enjoy!
