A colleague of mine at work - Janine - makes the BEST brownies. So good that you think she's bought them and just lied about baking them. However, I can attest that she does in fact make them from a recipe passed down from her grandma. Here it is:
CHOCOLATE CHUNK FUDGY BROWNIES
1 cup margarine 2 tsp. vanilla
3/4 cup baking cocoa 1 cup flour
2 cups sugar 1/2 tsp. salt
4 eggs 1 package chocolate chunks
1. Melt margarine. Remove from heat.
2. Add cocoa.
3. Add sugar.
4. Add eggs one at a time, beating very well after each egg.
5. Add vanilla, flour and salt. DO NOT OVER BEAT!
6. Stir in chocolate chunks.
7. Spread in greased 13" x 9" pan.
8. Bake in 350 degree over for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Since we all know that the ingredients you buy mean everything, she said she uses the Hershey's chocolate baking kisses (smaller than real kisses) for her chocolate chunks.
Update August 30, 2009: I have made these brownies a few times since Janine gave me the recipe and had really great reviews! Plus they're super easy to make. Whenever Safeway has a sale on the Hershey's baking kisses I stock up because I know that I'll without a doubt, make this again.
