Brownies

Joy has become a huge fan of Sohini ever since she started sharing her brownie recipes . He says Sohini aunty should have her own cookery show - her recipes are awesome.  Here goes the first of the brownie recipes from Sohini.  The result is a very rich and superfabulous ( from Shukti's vocabulary) brownie! The above picture is the brownie I baked for Joy's birthday  in 2010.

(a) 1 cup unsalted butter         
(b)   1 cup of cocoa          
(c) 2 cups of sugar
(d) 4 large eggs                    
(e) 1 cup of flour          
(f) 1 cup of chopped walnuts/ choco chips
(g) 1 tsp vanilla essence          
(h)  1 tsp salt(optional)

Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
Melt butter and  stir in cocoa.  Stir in sugar.  Break eggs into mixture one at a time, then add flour and stir to combine.  Add walnuts/ choco chips , vanilla and salt.  Stir to combine all ingredients.  Pour into a greased and lightly floured  baking tray.  Bake for about 20-25 minutes (I found it requires 40 minutes). Do not overcook or it will turn dry.
