Easy Homemade Brownies

I love brownies but never make them. I fear or; more know for a fact I would eat them all day long. One of the hazards of working from home. So yesterday I decided I am going to make a batch and freeze them individually so I could have one and only one, not the the whole tray. The only down side that I see is I have to share them with my husband, oh and when they came out of the oven my son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter were there. Now I have to share with them. My son actually was about to cut them before I got to take a picture; I caught him just in time.

I found this recipe from mytxkitchen.com that I thought I would try. The brownies are not too sweet; which is nice, they were gooey which is a must. They did say to use a metal pan only, I don’t have a 9×9 metal pan so; running with scissors I used my 8×8 ceramic. I did have to cook them longer, I think that was due to the size more so than metal vs. ceramic. I would make them again, or rather I am going to have to make them again if I want some left over in the freezer.

If you bake, I am sure you have these ingredients on hand. Make a batch today, if you don’t eat them all; you too can have a little chocolate morsel snack throughout the week.
