    For a rich, dark, fudgey brownie, go with Alton Brown's Cocoa Brownies, the genius of cooking celebrities:

    http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/coc...

    You don't need chocolate, just cocoa and butter:

    Soft butter, for greasing the pan

    Flour, for dusting the buttered pan

    4 large eggs

    1 cup sugar, sifted

    1 cup brown sugar, sifted

    8 ounces melted butter

    1 1/4 cups cocoa, sifted

    2 teaspoons vanilla extract

    1/2 cup flour, sifted

    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

    Directions

    Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Butter and flour an 8-inch square pan.

    In a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the eggs at medium speed until fluffy and light yellow. Add both sugars. Add remaining ingredients, and mix to combine.

    Pour the batter into a greased and floured 8-inch square pan and bake for 45 minutes. Check for doneness with the tried-and-true toothpick method: a toothpick inserted into the center of the pan should come out clean. When it's done, remove to a rack to cool. Resist the temptation to cut into it until it's mostly cool.
