A GOOD, BASIC BROWNIE RECIPE Cream butter until
soft and fluffy; gradually beat in sugar; creaming
well. Add eggs, one at a time, and melted chocolate,
mixing thoroughly. Add vanilla. Gradually beat in
flour which has been sifted. Stir in chopped nuts.
(walnuts are also good). Turn batter into a greased
jelly-roll pan. Bake at 350F. degrees for 25 minutes.
Mix all ingredients for icing together in a bowl.
When brownies are cool, spread with chocolate icing.
Variation: Brownies made in blender: Place eggs,
vanilla, soft butter, sugar and melted chocolate in
blender container, cover, switch on the motor, and
blend until smooth, using a rubber spapula in the top
of the mixture. Pour over flour in a pan, stir; add
nuts, and bake. Source: Unknown
