Thick, chewy brownies loaded with plenty of chocolate-y goodness to get you through the day.
How can you say no to these brownies? You can’t. That’s all there is to it. Now some of you may know that usualllly I’m not a chocolate person. How can it be so!? Well it’s just how its always been. For as long as I can remember I’ve always opted for vanilla over chocolate. Ice cream, milkshakes, cake, cookies. The whole sha-bang. But I can’t resist these. They are the best. And I don’t say that lightly.
These aren’t your usual dry and cakey brownies. They’re thick, chewy and fudgey. The best kind. They’re packed with real chocolate, and some cocoa powder – plus there are some extra chocolate chips in there for your real choc-a-holics. Leave em’ out if you want. But it’s worth it if they’re in there. Trust me.
Just look at how thick and beautiful they are, in all their chocolatey glory! Make these! You won’t regret it. Promise!
