Fudge Brownies

My Dad bought that new brownie pan that separates your brownies for you.  So, I'm trying this basic brownie recipe my brother liked so much when we were growing up.  They aren't fancy and we not frost them.  They are simple.  

Fudge Brownies
1 cup butter or margarine
2 cups sugar
3 squares chocolate
2 cups flour
1 cup nuts, optional
2 tsp. vanilla
4 eggs

Melt the margarine and cocoa together.  Beat eggs, sugar and vanilla.  Mix with cocoa and margarine.  Beat thoroughly, but don't over beat because brownies aren't as good then.  Add flour and nuts.  Mix well.  Bake in jelly roll pan or in this case the "new brownie pan"  Bake at 350 for 15-30 minutes depending on which pan you  use.
