What you need:

• 13x9 inch pan
• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 4 eggs
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 2 cups of granulated sugar
• 3/4 cups 100% cocoa powder
• 1/2tsp. salt
• 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flower

How to do it:

1. Preheat the oven to 350.
2. Melt butter.
3. In a large bowl mix together butter and cocoa powder.
4. Mix in the sugar, salt, and vanilla (it will look grainy don't worry).
5. Mix in the eggs one at a time (here it should smooth out)
6. Mix in the flour.
7. Spread the mixture into greased pan.
8. Bake for 20 minutes or until no mixture comes of a fork when you stick it into the pan.
9. Let the brownies sit for another 20 minutes and then cute and serve.

Tips:

• melt the butter in a pan on low heat for some reason it tastes better than nuking it in the microwave.
• use butter to grease the pan instead of a spray it works just as effectively and keeps the brownies from tasting fake.
• Ghirardelli has the best cocoa powder and keeps from making the brownies too sweet.
• when your cutting the brownies use a hot knife so that it does not stick to the brownies and you have a cleaner cut.
