Steps:
- Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 350°F Spray 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick vegetable cooking spray.
- Fold two 12-inch pieces of foil lengthwise so that they measure 7 inches wide. Fit one sheet in bottom of greased pan, pushing it into corners and up sides of pan; overhang will help in removal of baked brownies. Following illustration 1 below, fit second sheet in pan in same manner, perpendicular to first sheet. Spray foil with nonstick cooking spray.
- In medium heatproof bowl set over a pan of almost-simmering water, melt chocolates and butter, stirring occasionally until mixture is smooth. Whisk in cocoa until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Whisk together eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt in medium bowl until combined, about 15 seconds. Whisk warm chocolate mixture into egg mixture; then stir in flour with wooden spoon until just combined. Pour mixture into prepared pan, spread into corners, and level surface with rubber spatula; bake until slightly puffed and toothpick inserted in center comes out with a small amount of sticky crumbs clinging to it, 35 to 40 minutes.
- Cool on wire rack to room temperature, about 2 hours, then remove brownies from pan using foil handles (see illustration 2, below).
- Cut into 1-inch squares and serve. (Do not cut brownies until ready to serve; brownies can be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated up to 5 days.).

CHEWY AND FUDGY BROWNIES MADE WITH MILK CHOCOLATE
Milk chocolate variation of my chewy and fudgy brownies that I developed to use-up some extra milk chocolate that I had around after x-mas.... A bit lighter than the other, good compromise taste for those that aren't instense chocoholics. Lots of options!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees f.
- Toast nuts on a foil lined sheet pan until fragrant, about 7-9 minutes.
- While nuts are toasting break chocolate up into small pieces and place in a medium microwave safe bowl with the butter.
- Melt Butter with chocolate in the microwave, about 2 mins at 50% power.
- Stir and continue to microwave at 50% power as required, stirring every 60 seconds.
- This can also be done over a double boiler.
- Allow chocolate mixture and roasted nuts to cool.
- Meanwhile lightly beat eggs and vanilla in a small bowl and prepare a 13x9 pan (metal preferred) by lining it pan with foil (or parchment) and grease.
- Leave enough overhang on the lining to lift the brownies out of the pan when done.
- In a heavy duty plastic bag smash nuts with a rolling pin until well crushed, add dry and optional ingredients.
- Shake to combine.
- This can be done in a bowl if you prefer.
- Slowly pour egg mixture into chocolate while stirrin, mixture will thicken slightly.
- Add dry ingredients in three batches, fully incorporating each addition as you go.
- Spread mixture into prepared pan with an angled spatula or a large spoon.
- Bake 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the pan comes out just slightly moist.
- Cooking time varies all over the place depending on type of pan and your oven.
- I use natural aluminum pans, have a calibrated thermometer and keep a pizza stone in the oven for consistancy.
- Whatever you do to insure that that you don't over cook, simply start checking when they start to smell like brownies!
- You can rotate the pan halfway through the cooking process to even things out if desired.
- Cool in the pan on a rack.
- Remove from pan by lifting liner, place on a cutting board and cut into squares.
