Deliciously Wibbly Brownies

 We've all made brownieson autopilot. This is a great recipe from Nigella Lawson's newest collection.It uses cocoa powder, and is studded with lucious nibs of chocolate, above and below. It quells that longing for a dark chocolate fix, in the middle of a dreary, or not so dreary day.

INGREDIENTS: 1 1/2 cups butter,  1/2 cups brown sugar, 2/3 cup cocoa, 1 1/3 cup flour, 1 tsp soda, pinch of salt, 4 eggs, 1 tsp vanilla, couple of handfuls of dark chocolate nibs, or semi sweet chocolate chips. And lastly, a handful of semi sweet chocolate chips to scatter over top.
                                         Melt butter in microwave, toss in brown sugar and stir.
 Add cocoa to this mixture and stir.....
 Add flour, soda, pinch of salt and stir all together. It will appear dry.
 Beat eggs with vanilla. Pour all at once into batter mixture. Toss in chocolate nibs.
 Spread batter in foil lined pan. Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes.
Sprinkle extra handful of chocolate chips on top. Return to oven for about a minute. They will magically melt.  Let brownies cool. You can eat them gorgeously warm,while they still wibble a bit,  but  you might burn your fingers and that would never do.
