Nana Jeans Chocolate Brownies Recipe

	Awthomp / All my dishes 1 year, 6 months ago Some of the fondest memories of my life have involved visiting my grandmother in Ohio. She would always have these thin, delicious brownies for us! These go great with a glass of milk and provide a nice alternative to the thick "in your face" brownies one so often sees today.... More Prep:10m Cook:60m Servings:16	Awthomp

2 eggs

2 tablespoons ice cold water

2 squares melted unsweetened chocolate

2/3 cups flour

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 pinch of salt

1 cup nuts (optional)

Powdered sugar (optional)

Directions

Melt the chocolate and butter together (using the microwave, saucepan, or double boiler)

In a large bowl, combine the sugar, flour, salt, and nuts (if desired - I leave them out)

Add in the eggs, melted chocolate and butter mixture, water, and vanilla

Place the brownie batter in a 9x13 inch pan and bake at 275 degrees for one hour

When the brownies have cooled, cut them up and dust both sides with powdered sugar

I'm not really sure. The brownies are pretty thin but dense, so maybe the ice water has something to do with that.

I'm certainly no food scientist :).

I think that the idea behind the ice water is to give the eggs a little more insurance against cooking when they hit the warm chocolate.

Also, you left out the really important step of cooking them just a little bit too long so that they're ever-so-slightly crispy around the edges.
