Who doesn’t love a nice, warm, fudge brownie? Making brownies brings back so many childhood memories of being in the kitchen with my mom making the Duncan Hines brand. The best part was licking the mixture off the spoon afterwards and her always leaving a little extra in the bowl. Obviously, I had to create a brownie recipe from scratch. Ladies and gentlemen, let me warn you that these brownies will leave you addicted!
One thing I have noticed about eaint brownies is that there are two different types of people who eat them. Those who love the edge and those who love the middle. I personally love the middle. There is nothing better than the moist, chewy center right after they come out of the oven. Place a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top and it is like a little bite of heaven in your mouth.
