These brownies are delicious! I chose them because they looked similar to my grandmother's recipe for Blonde Brownies, but they actually turned out more dense and chewy. It was a very nice change! I only ended up with a dozen bars, because I cut them a little larger. I have a feeling they'll be gone very quickly!

I have been making these for years and they are absolutely delicious, especially with a glass of milk!

I love the edges! These are good but they're a bit sweet for me.

These are very good! I left out the nuts and used the oil option. They were done in 20 minutes in my electric oven. I cut them a bit large, so got about 9 good sized bars with an "edge". I think I'll pack up the flour and brown sugar measurements in plastic bags and keep them in the freezer to make the process even quicker! Theresa, thank you for a great recipe!
