Lannette's Brownies

Submitted by Grannie B

"Almost as simple as a brownie mix . . . and they're decadent!! I use only real butter, real vanilla, and real, quality chocolate chips! Cook's note: The flour is an unsifted measure - I lightly spoon the flour into the measuring cups."

What a great recipe! Better than a box but very easy to mix up - and even easier to eat! They melt in your mouth.
