By 1For_Him

These are absolutely the chewiest, moistest, fudgiest brownies ever! Add "whatever floats your boat" and you will not believe how yummy they come out. The recipe doubles just fine--use a 9 x 13 inch pan instead and add a few more minutes of baking!

Preparation

Step 1

Prep Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 35 mins

1 Preheat oven to 350°F.
2 Grease an 8 inch square pan or line with foil.
3 In a medium bowl combine melted butter and cocoa and stir until cocoa is dissolved.
4 Add sugar and mix well.
5 Add eggs one at a time and stir until well combined.
6 Stir in vanilla, flour and salt until you no longer see any flour (do not overmix).
7 Fold in "WHATEVER FLOATS YOUR BOAT"!
8 Spread in pan and bake for approximately 25 minutes.
9 DO NOT OVER-BAKE -- your brownies will come out dry. Adjust time/temp accordingly for your oven. If you do the knife/toothpick test, it should come out with moist crumbs, not clean.
10 Cool completely before cutting into squares.
11 For double recipe, bake in 9x12 pan and add 5 minutes to baking time.
