Chewey Brownies

I've been experimenting brownies for about half a dozen times and I think I got the consistency I want this time. I wanted a crusty toasted topping but a soft and chewey inside with melted dark chocolates. Here is my recipe:

Ingredients:
  2-1/2 cups flour
  2 eggs beaten
  1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
  1 stick of unsalted butter
  1 flat bar of dark chocolate
  1 cup sugar
  
Recipe:
In a bowl, add the eggs, softened butter, flour, sugar and mix thoroughly. Chop the dark chocolate bar and add to the ingredients. Brush vegetable oil on a 9 x 13 pan and pour in the mixture. Heat the oven to 350F degrees or 170C celcius and wait 5 minutes. Bake the pan for 20 to 25 minutes. Take out the pan and rest for 20 minutes then cut and serve.

Greeka Kouzina...it's all Greek to me!

Greeka Kouzina, located at 285 P. Guevarra, Little Baguio, San Juan with its decor, typifies an authentic taverna when traveling to Greece. You'll find authentic dishes like the roast shoulder lamb, pork chop, mousaka, Greek salad, artichoke dip, lamb, beef
and chicken souvlaki and gyros. Aside from their authentic food, their ceiling is decorated with colorful mediteranean lamps and wall covered photos of white washed buildings found in most Greek islands. One of the few Greek restaurants in the metro that you'll find most enjoyable! Opah!
