Not sure what I did wrong, but my brownies came out dry and crumbly.

Easy to make and so delicious! I didn't have any walnuts on hand, so I used pecans instead. They were still amazing.

This walnut brownie loaf with cocoa fudge frosting was a hit! The texture was moist and dense, and the flavor was rich and chocolatey. The walnuts added a nice crunch, and the frosting was the perfect finishing touch. I will definitely be making this
