   A GOOD, BASIC BROWNIE RECIPE      Cream butter until
   soft and fluffy; gradually beat in sugar; creaming
   well. Add eggs, one at a time, and melted chocolate,
   mixing thoroughly. Add vanilla. Gradually beat in
   flour which has been sifted.  Stir in chopped nuts.
    (walnuts are also good).  Turn batter into a greased
   jelly-roll pan. Bake at 350F. degrees for 25 minutes.
        Mix all ingredients for icing together in a bowl.
   When brownies are cool, spread with chocolate icing.
   Variation: Brownies made in blender: Place eggs,
   vanilla, soft butter, sugar and melted chocolate in
   blender container, cover, switch on the motor, and
   blend until smooth, using a rubber spapula in the top
   of the mixture. Pour over flour in a pan, stir; add
   nuts, and bake. Source: Unknown
