Time 50m

Yield 12 small Brownies, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 (1 ounce) unsweetened chocolate squares
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup flour
1 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Melt together 1 stick butter and 2 squares unsweetened chocolate and take the saucepan off the heat.
  • Stir in 1 cup sugar, add 2 eggs and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and beat the mixture well.
  • Stir in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt. (In the original recipe, 1 cup chopped walnuts is added here as well.).
  • Bake the brownies in a buttered and floured 8-inch-square pan at 325°F for about 40 minutes.
  • You can cut these brownies into squares, once they have cooled, and eat them out of the pan, but it is so much nicer to pile them on a fancy plate, from which people are going to eat them with their hands anyway. If you want to smarten up your act you can put a square of brownie on a plate with a little blob of créme fraîche and a scattering of shaved chocolate.

These brownies are delicious! I love the gooey center and the crispy edges. The walnuts add a nice touch of flavor and texture.

Overall, I thought these brownies were pretty good. They were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed them.

These brownies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my brownies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.
