My oven is broken. Do you know what this means? No granola bars. No roasted asparagus. No challah. No brownies. This is no way to live, people. If you have a functioning oven, waste no time. Carpe brownies.

Brownies

4 oz unsweetened baker's chocolate
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt

Preheat oven to 350.

In a small bowl, beat eggs, then add vanilla.
In another small bowl, combine flour and salt.
Melt butter and chocolate in a saucepan.
Turn off heat.
Add sugar to saucepan and stir til dissolved.
Temper egg mixture with a bit of the chocolate/sugar, then add to saucepan and stir thoroughly.
Add flour/salt to saucepan and stir til combined.

Bake in a 9" x 9" pan for 30 minutes.

You are the fourth person I know to have made brownies this week. We made ours on Tuesday. It was damn hot...but we turned our oven on anyway. Carpe diem. Hot or not! :)
