Is the Brownie the #1 Chocolate Treat?

by Barry Wolfe

Are those fighting words? You know those fudgy and gooey squares of chocolate heaven that make your taste buds dance? Everyone has their biased opinions that's for sure.

With or without nuts? Cake-like or chewy? Added chocolate chips? Cream cheese? Condensed sweeten milk?

Well, the recipes deliver exactly that. It all starts with simple ingredients you probably already have stash in your kitchen

– butter, sugar, eggs, flour, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract. The key to ultimate brownie success is in the technique - don't overmix the batter or else you'll end up with dry and cakey brownies instead of those dense and chewy delights we all crave. And let's not forget about the heavenly crackly top that adds a little extra magic to every bite. So go ahead and whip up a batch of these bad boys because life is just better with a warm and indulgent homemade brownie cradled in your hands. Yum!
