The search for the perfect brownie is done

I was searching for the perfect fudgy brownie for a long time, now I can say I found it, yes this is gonna be the recipe I will use from now on, no more playing around, this brownies are perfect, so perfect that I am so addict to them, I can eat and eat and eat non stop. Once you try them there is not return, you are hook.



We ate some of them with a little bit of confectioner's sugar and some berries, some with ice cream and and a big piece was the base for a dark chocolate mouse cake, unfortunately I did not have the chance to take pictures of it because my wife smash it when she was trying to remove it from the fridge.....no comments....  
Enjoy it.....

In a large bowl beat the eggs and yolks just to blend. Add the sugars, corn syrup, vanilla and salt to the eggs, mix until combined.
Add the chocolate mixture to the egg mixture and stir together, add the pecans and then stir the flour.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for about 1 hour. Start checking after 40 min, a toothpick should come out wet with gooey chocolate.
