Fudge Brownies

"These brownies are simple to make and very dense and chocolately... Definitely not your cake type brownie. No baking powder or baking soda is required by this recipe (ie their absense isn't a type-o). If desired, you can also frost these with chocolate icing."

  1. These were simple, dense fudge brownies with everyday ingredients, just what I was looking for! The taste and texture were fantastic. The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is the recipe as written makes a super thin brownie, even in my 8x8 pan, and the chips on top never really melted enough to spread. Also, to get 25 pieces out of this seemed unrealistic. In the future I will try doubling the recipe and baking longer as well as just stiffing in the chips as someone else suggested. Thanks though, this is a keeper!
     
  2. I've made these brownies for a few months am finally getting around to writing my review. These are a huge hit with my father and that says a lot. He is very picky with food and he asks for these all of the time. Thanks for the recipe!
     
  3. Perfect brownie *Pixie*! Loved that it was a fudgy chocolatey brownie! I just mixed the chips into the batter - to make it come together even quicker. Yummy! Thanks for sharing. I'm glad I tagged this recipe in the Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup game.
     
  4. This recipe is awesome. So fudgy, so delicious. I didn't have any Walnuts so I added some crushed hazelnuts. I will be making this one regularly, for sure, Thanx Pixie!!!
     
  5. This makes a good fudgy brownie! I stirred 1/2 cup of chocolate chips into the batter and didn't melt any over top. I didn't have a 9" pan so had to use my 8" and had to bake it a hair longer. The kids and I enjoyed these! Thanks Pixie!
