Notes
-
Want extra thick brownies? Use an 8×8 pan.
-
Don’t overbake! These brownies are best when slightly underdone in the center for that fudgy bite.
-
Make it festive with pink sprinkles or crushed freeze-dried strawberries on top.
-
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days or refrigerate up to a week.
