How to- Eliza Jane Schaeffer

How to make my favorite brownies:
1. Gather your ingredients, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Farenheit, preview the recipe to make sure there will be no surprises, and grease a 9 x 13 pan with a block of Crisco. 
2. Sift your flour, baking soda, and salt. Do not skip this step- this ensures that all of your dry ingredients are evenly mixed and not clumpy.
3. Place the butter and chocolate in a microwave-safe ball and microwave for one minute. Stir and put it back in for 30 seconds. Stir. Repeat this process until the chocolate and butter are completely melted and mixed. 
4. Crack your eggs in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until the yolk and the white are fully mixed. Slowly add in the sugar and beat until it is light yellow and glossy, at least 2 full minutes. 
5. Add chocolate to eggs and stir. Add flour. Avoid mixing any more than necessary. 
6. Stir in vanilla extract and chocolate chips.
7. Bake for 25 minutes in the middle rack of the oven. Before taking out, make sure that the middle is not jiggly and the top has developed a bit of a crust. 
8. Allow to cool for at least one hour before cutting. Otherwise, you'll make a huge mess.
