Brownies Fudgy Style

FrenchBunny's Note:

I use to make these brownies all the time for my wee ones. My DD still wants me to make them often, but since she is the only one at home now and she is the only one that likes chocolate I don't make them every time she asks, because she eats them all up real quick. They are absolutely delicious, and so moist and flavorful. I really don't remember where I got the recipe from but I do know I have been making them for over 25 years. Not hard to make either even for a newbie. I personally do not put in the chopped nuts, it is totally optional, does not affect the outcome. No need for icing on these brownies at all

I can see why your DD likes this brownie. Very tasty and moist. I added the optional chopped (walnuts) nuts. Made for Every Day Holiday Tag.
