brownies recipe

[jwgh]

I cobbled this recipe together from various elements the other day, and it worked pretty well, so I'm posting it for future notice.

Ingredients

• 3 one-ounce squares baking chocolate
• 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter
• 1 1/4 cup sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1 tbs vanilla
• 3/4 cup flour
• 2-3 oz. walnuts
• 4-6 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350^oF.
2. In a 1-quart saucepan, melt the baking chocolate and butter and mix until fully combined. Remove from heat.
3. Stir in sugar.
4. Stir in eggs and vanilla.
5. Stir in flour and mix well.
6. Pour into greased 11 1/2"x8" baking pan.
7. On top of the mixture, evenly sprinkle the walnuts and chocolate chips.
8. Cook for 35 minutes.

I seem to recall that you had a post with an exciting subject line the other day as well!

these look delicious!

They are pretty good! (if I do say so myself)

I made a second batch today, but was short an egg and used too many walnuts and chocolate chips. (They were still good, but the earlier batch was better.)

Before I actually attempt this -- is it 1 Tbsp or 1 tsp vanilla?

Truthfully, I just splash a bunch in, because I really like vanilla. I think a tablespoon is about right for what I put in -- certainly more than a teaspoon.

The original recipe that this is based on called for a teaspoon.

Did you make them? How did they come out?
