How To Make Chocolate Fudge Brownies

So today I was thinking about what type of food really puts me into a good mood. I mean there is Thai Food, the ever tantalizing chinese cuisine, delicious indian cuisine, and all my other favorites. Sometimes the only thing that can hit the spot is some really really good chocolate. Now I am not at all the type of person that absolutely loves chocolate but I do have a sweet tooth for the "brownie". Chocolate chocolatey drops of heaven. You basically bite down into chocolate goodness. For beginners trying to bake a good brownie it might be a good idea to just follow a box recipe like Betty Crocker's Fudge Brownies. I know this might seem like a cop out to you hard core chocolate lovers but it does save a lot of time! here is recipe you can try out if you are a bit more adventurous as well...

This brownie is tall and has a cake like consistency but it still has that fudgie part that we all love..

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

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**. Blend in chocolate mixture, flour and salt until just mixed.



Oh and the secret ingredient that I just discovered? Place a small glass bowl of water in the oven while baking your brownies. I don't get the whole scientific process but it somehow adds moisture to whatever you are cooking. This will get your brownie to the cakey style. I actually came to this by accident but it made my brownies amazing!
