I tried this last night, and took them to my favorite redhead at work.....they were awesome!!!
Thanks so much!


Heck yes these are so good! I made them yesterday and they're fantastic. Have all the fudgy texture of a regular brownie, sans chocolate! I didnt add the choc chips on top. Also reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup.
Gets a big 5 from me!
