The Palmer House Brownie

Ingredients

• 1 pound butter
• 4 semisweets chocolate , 3.5 ounce bars
• 1.5 cups white sugar
• 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 8 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1.5 packages crushed walnuts , 8 ounce

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease a 9x12-inch rimmed baking sheet.

2. 2

   Make brownies: Place butter and chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Combine sugar and flour in a large bowl. Add chocolate mixture to sugar mixture; mix until well combined, 4 to 5 minutes. Mix in eggs and vanilla extract. Pour batter into the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle walnuts on top, pressing them down slightly into batter.

4. 4

   Bake in the preheated oven until edges start to crisp and brownies rise about 1/4 inch, 30 to 40 minutes.

5. 5

   Make glaze: Mix together water, preserves, and unflavored gelatin in a saucepan over high heat; bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 2 minutes.

6. 6

   Allow brownies to cool for 30 minutes, then spread a thin layer of glaze on top with a pastry brush.
