BROWNIES WITH UNSWEETENED CHOCOLATE SQUARES RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Line a 8x8 pan with foil, leaving an overhang on two opposite sides.
• Melt chocolate and butter in a bowl over a pot of barely simmering water until smooth, stirring often.
• Remove bowl from heat and stir in sugar vanilla and salt.
• Add eggs one at a time, stirring thoroughly.
• Stir in flour and beat with a spoon or rubber spatula for a minute or two until smooth and glossy.
• Stir in nuts.
• Scrape batter into prepared pan and smooth to even it.
• Bake for 30 to 35 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out with some thick gooey batter clinging to it.

Steps:

• 1. Melt together 1 stick butter and 2 squares unsweetened chocolate and take the saucepan off the heat.
• 2. Stir in 1 cup sugar, add 2 eggs and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and beat the mixture well.
• 3. 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.)
• 4. 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.
