People ask me what my secret ingredient is, because there has to be one when you can make box brownie mix taste like magic.
Well, I'll tell you. First, you need to use eggs so fresh you saw your pet chicken shit it out this morning. Then you need to use extra virgin olive oil- I know it says to use vegetable oil, but trust me. If you're making a cake or bread or muffins and not brownies, use real butter and substitute in milk instead of water.
But none of this is my secret. These alone won't change shit.
What is my secret? I can hear you asking me now. Well, I'll tell you. The secret... Is stress. Bake all of your stress into your got dam brownies! Fucking go at that batter with all of the nervous energy you have built up inside you! Stress, people! That's how you fucking bake!!!!
