What exactly constitutes the perfect brownie? Fudgy? Chocolatey? Chewy? Trick question, answer is all of the above.
These brownies are made with simple ingredients that deliver a rich, chocolatey flavor that we all want. Every bite will leave you wanting more, and I must admit, I might have eaten two right as they came out of the oven and cooled a bit because they were that irresistible. While they are good as is, my favorite way to serve the brownies are warm topped with some vanilla ice cream. I mean who doesn’t love that combination?
Enough talking, lets get to the good stuff!
