"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 cup room temp butter
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
4 large eggs, at room temp
2 oz red food coloring (optional)
4 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350º, butter and flour a 9x13" clear glass baking dish.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in food coloring (if you're not using the food coloring add 4 tablespoons of water or milk) and vanilla, mix until the color is fully incorporated. Mix flour, cocoa and salt in a separate bowl. Slowly add in the flour mixture, be very careful not to overmix. It is very important not to overmix. The batter will be very thick.
Remove the bowl from the mixer and stir up the batter with a rubber spatula once or twice, just to ensure all of the flour has incorporated from the sides of the bowl and there isn't anything stuck on the bottom of the bowl. You'll want one uniformly colored (red) batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-40 minutes (35 minutes for a thin crust on top and gooey underneath). Set aside to cool, cut into bars and serve.
