Fab-u-lous! We just loved these brownies! I must admit that they were made for DH to give to favorite clients, and after a small sampling, he didn't get as many to give away! ;-) I followed your directions to the 'T', although it seems like I typically add the eggs before adding the flour, but it didn't seem to make a difference. They are fudgey and moist, and I'm saving them to my faves! Thanks so much for sharing, Pat!

A perfect brownie recipe! I absolutely love the slightly crunchy top to the brownies but the insides are so perfectly moist! I used my KA mixer to mix the batter and glad I did as waiting till the end to add the eggs makes it really more difficult but then you get this fluffy batter that makes a fabulous brownie in the end. The only slight change was I had to use chopped almonds instead of pecans as I realized too late that I did not have pecans on hand. Any nut would work well with this brownie batter for sure. Just pure delight. Thanks for sharing in WTTM tag game.
