Best Brownies

It’s not my title people. But, I do agree with it. I found this recipe a number of years ago, and it’s my fav. That being said, I’m an icing kind of girl. And this recipe has icing – delicious icing in fact. Which may be why it’s my fav.

It’s also hubby’s fav. Yes, this chocolate chip cookie recipe is his favorite. For cookies. But if you asked him to pick his favorite dessert, he’d tell you it was these brownies.
