Brownies


I think I've finally found that perfect brownie recipe. I've tried many and most, to me, were very much like a brick of fudge. I prefer to have a brownie that has some of the fudgy texture with a more dense cakier texture. I'm not saying those denser versions are not just as delicious, I just like it less so. I also don't enjoy those recipe's that call themselves brownies, but are simply chocolate cake. This recipe came out dense and chewy. I think you could put them in a smaller pan and have them come out a little gooier than this if you prefer. I've added pecans to this recipe and am considering adding some puffed rice for crunch next time, or even some dried fruit.
