Recipe Tips
Allow the brownies to cool for an hour or so for best results–they’ll finish cooking as they cool.
You can also use milk chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, or dark chocolate chips for a more intense chocolatey flavor.
If you have leftover brownies, store in an airtight container for 4-5 days.
For a more indulgent result, allow the brownies to cool and spread with a layer of cream cheese frosting or vanilla frosting.
