    I crack open the two eggs and pour them in the bowl, throwing away the shells. I measure 1/4 cup of water and pour it in the mixture as well as 2/3's of a cup of oil. The hardest part is blending it in really well; I take two minutes really mixing in the ingredients, making sure everything is well mixed in and is on the right condition, not too creamy, but not too hard. Once I am done with that, I grab a couple of Oreos and start breaking them into pieces and putting them in the plastic bag. I start hitting the Oreos, cracking them into smaller pieces and then pouring that into the brownie mixture.…

    Which he places in our dry ingredients bowl. Next he measures one teaspoon each of both salt and baking soda, and then, just to keep him busy he gets to whisk the ingredients together while my eldest works on the next step of our recipe. Carl, my eldest, gets to mix all the wet ingredients together. He starts off with beating one cup of room temperature of butter in the mixer on medium speed. Next he he adds ¾ cup each brown sugar and white sugar, one teaspoon of vanilla extract into the butter, and mixes till creamy. Now I always have to pay close attention to this step thanks to past experiances. Carl one time beat the mixture one time past creamy and straight on through to a puddle of sweet wrongness. Carl also has to add two large eggs into a glass bowl minus the shells (that again is another story for another time) into the batter.
