Here is a brownie recipe you will love and be making it often. It is so simple\u2014takes no more time than a brownie mix and is soooooo much better. This recipe was shared with me about 30 years ago by my minister\u2019s wife, Betty.<\/p>\n

When my grandson was living with us, he had a couple of friends who would remind me if I had not made the brownies for a long time.My grandson prefers his with no nuts or other toppings–but most people enjoy the nuts or other additions. Customize to what you and your family love.<\/p>\n

The recipe I am giving you is for a 13×9 pan. Recipe can be halved and baked in an 8 or 9 inch square pan\u2014which is perfect for giving as a gift. I have given mine at Christmas, for birthdays and even taken them to new neighbors.<\/p>\n

These brownies freeze well. Once I was trying to diet and they were just too much of a temptation—so I froze them. Found out a few days later, they were just as good directly from the freezer. So much for my diet!!<\/p>\n

The picture of my brownies (at the top) were one I made for a Fall Bazaar. I put on a variety of toppings\u2014nuts, peanut butter chips and M&M\u2019s.\u00a0 Something for everyone!<\/p>\n
