- With the mixer on medium-low speed, add the eggs one at a time, blending after each addition until the yolk is broken and dispersed, about 10 seconds.
- Scrape the bowl after the last egg and blend until velvety, about 15 more seconds.

- Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and sprinkle the remaining 2 Tbsp of nuts over the top.
- Bake the brownies on the center oven rack until a thin crust forms on top and a tester inserted in the center comes out with a moist crumb, about 35 minutes.
- (The center of the brownies should never quite rise to the height of the edges.)
Directions
- Remove pan from oven and place on a rack to cool for 1 hour.
Directions
- FROSTING: To prepare the frosting, melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler placed over simmering water.
- Pour the evaporated milk into an electric blender and add the sugar and the melted chocolate.
- Blend the frosting on medium-low speed until it thickens, about 50 seconds (the sound of the machine will change when this process occurs.)
Directions
- Using a frosting spatula, spread the frosting evenly over the surface of the cooled brownies and allow them to sit for 1 hour before cutting.
- Makes 36 small brownies.
