1/3 cup oil
115g unsweetened baking chocolate
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup all purpose flour

Preheat the oven to 160C and line and grease 8-inch square metal baking pan.
Melt the butter and the chocolate together, stirring often until smooth. Stir in sugar, vanilla and salt. Add eggs one at a time, followed by flour. Stir until very smooth, about 1 minute.
Scrape batter into prepared pan and bake at 160C for 40 minutes.
When the brownies are done - and they will look a bit dry on top - take them immediately from the oven to cool.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Makes about 12.
