Paula Deen Chocolate Mound Brownies

AmyZoe's Note:

I'm not a chocolate lover, but these brownies remind me of Mounds bars. Nothing like coconut and pecans to go with chocolate to make it delicious. Recipe courtesy of The Lady & Sons Too (Paula H. Deen).

I made these brownies the first time for a bake sale at work. The money was voluntary and these sold for 5 dollars each! I didn't change a thing and they were absolutely delicious, fudgey and delightful.

These are great. Very moist brownie. I used almonds because that is all I had on hand. Will definitely make again.
