"I came across these in a magazine today and the picture is just breath-taking! (If only you could see it) These look like they're straight from a bakery--and magnificently chocolatey:) Plus, I know that the sprinkles will make my son Jake smile:)"

ingredients

³⁄₄ cup sugar
¹⁄₃ cup butter
2 tablespoons water
4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
³⁄₄ cup flour
¹⁄₂ teaspoon salt
¹⁄₄ teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons shortening

directions

In a saucepan over medium heat, bring the sugar, butter, and water to a boil; remove pan from heat.
Stir in 1 cup of the chocolate chips and the vanilla; stir until smooth.
Cool for 5 minutes.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until well mixed.
Combine the flour, salt, and baking soda; stir into the chocolate mixture just until combined.
Stir in another 1 cup of the chocolate chips; pour the batter into a greased 9 x 9" square baking pan and spread the top evenly.
Bake in a preheated 325°F oven for 30-35 minutes; cool completely on a wire rack.
Place the cooled brownie pan in the freezer for 30-40 minutes (do not freeze completely); cut brownies into 2 x 1" sticks.
In a saucepan, melt the remaining 2 cups chocolate chips with the shorteneing; stirring until smooth.
Using a small fork, dip the brownies into the chocolate to completely coat them; shake off any excess chocolate.
Place the dipped brownies onto a waxed paper-lined cookie sheet; immediately sprinkle tops with nuts (or whatever else you may choose).
Allow brownies to set; store in an airtight container in a cool place.

These are DECADENT! They're VERY chocolatey and taste almost like a fudgy candy bar! Easy to make and would be very impressive on a holiday cookie platter. Thanks for posting!
