To prepare brownies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (or 325°F for a fudgier result). In a mixing bowl, combine 1 bag of brownie mix with 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup of melted butter or margarine. Blend well until the mixture is thick and uniform.

Optional: Stir in 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts if desired, then pour the mixture into a greased 8x8 inch baking pan.

Bake for 30-35 minutes at 350°F, or 35 minutes at 325°F for extra fudginess. Use a toothpick to test for doneness—the toothpick should come out clean.

For best results, refrigerate any leftover brownies to maintain their fudgy texture. To serve, trim a 1/4 inch off all sides while still in the pan to create 'brownie sticks.' Remove the sticks before cutting the brownies into squares. Enjoy these delicious brownies plain for an intense chocolate experience!
