The Best Homemade Brownies

You’ll never reach for a box of brownie mix after trying my mom’s delicious brownies. I’ve made these so many times since childhood it’s actually the only recipe I know by heart. They are thinner than most brownies, but still super fudgy and moist with crisp edges.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter
  • 4 ounces unsweetened chocolate squares
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts optional

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
In the top of a double boiler, melt the butter and chocolate. Remove from heat stir in sugar, eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Combine the flour and salt and add to the chocolate mixture, stir until smooth. Spread batter into a 10×15 greased cookie sheet.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, do not overcook.
Let set for 5 minutes before cutting into squares and then cool on a rack.
