Aunt Kay's Brownies

Can I really add 2 blog posts in one night?  Maybe that is the way to do it!  I was totally in the mood for brownies tonight...maybe because I made a plan with Ellen to start eating better next week (after school starts...hee, hee).  I love this other recipe that I got when I was a newlywed by Aunt Kay.  She probably has no idea how many times I have made her brownies.  All of our Squires aunts are amazing cooks.  I think Aunt Lila could be our own Rachel Ray.  I really want to publish some of her recipes soon.  Ammon just said, "Mmmm, mom these brownies are really good!"  Take from Ammon and try them.
*The recipe is slightly modified from the 70's when we used margarine instead of butter!

2 c. butter
1/2 c. cocoa
4 eggs
2 c. sugar
2 t. vanilla
1 c. flour

Melt butter and cocoa together.  Meanwhile beat 4 eggs until fluffy.  Add 2 c. sugar gradually (while mixer is running). Stir in butter mixture.  Stir in flour and vanilla.  Bake at 350 in a 9x12 (?)  greased and floured pan for 35-45 min.  Check for doneness with toothpick.
Frost while warm with chocolate frosting.
