The title of this recipe evolved because I tried several variations until I arrived at this version. These brownies are exactly as they should be: dark and gooey, yet chewy. Brownies keep well either in an airtight tin or in the freezer but these are so popular that they nearly always disappear before being stored away.
Put the eggs in a large bowl with the salt and sugar and whisk thoroughly until light and frothy. Then whisk in the butter and chocolate mixture. Sift the flour on to the mixture and fold in lightly with a large metal spoon. Stir in the chopped nuts, if using, and pour the mixture into the buttered pan.
