Decadent Chocolate brownies

Brownies, quick to make with no fancy methods to follow. I mean whats not to love about a good sticky chocolatey brownie with a tall glass of milk, or a double scoop of home made vanilla bean ice cream? 

This is what I like to bake on my days of in large amount and just store them in big air tight glass jars. So when I come home after a long day of work I just grab one ( sometimes 2 or 3) and pour myself a glass of milk and just sit back and relax while enjoying a bit of heaven.

1. Start by placing your eggs, sugar and oil into a mixing bowl and whisking till well aerated and sugar is properly de-solved.
2. Now sift all your dry ingredients into mixing bowl and turn the mixer to medium speed till well incorporated.
3. Now you can add in the melted chocolate and the assorted nuts. Mix one last time till you have a lovely thick batter.
