Brownies

1 cup melted margarine (2 sticks)
2 cups sugar
4 medium eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 teaspoon vanilla
1-1/4 cups flour

First melt your margarine (I do it in the microwave). Next get out a large bowl and combine the margarine and sugar. Add all four eggs, and beat the mixture until it is sort of fluffy and emulsified. Add the salt, cocoa, and vanilla. Stir up really well. Add the flour. Stir again until the mixture is thick and chocolaty.

Turn the batter into a well oiled 9 by 13-inch pan. Bake at 350° for 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool before serving. Cut into 32 small squares.

NOTE: Don’t be tempted to put baking powder or baking soda into this recipe. This recipe does not call for any leavening other than the eggs. This is the secret that makes them chewy and fudgy.
