I LEARNED to make these brownies in 1957 in home economics class. They were the first goodies I'd ever baked by myself. Now, 40 years later, I still make a batch occasionally. The recipe calls for basic ingredients on hand in most every kitchen, and the rich chocolate flavor is delicious. -Lorraine Silver, Chicopee, Massachusetts

[email protected]These brownies were really easy to make and they turned out great! I used a 9x13 inch pan and they were the perfect size. I also used dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips and they were really rich and delicious.

[email protected]These brownies were really dense and fudgy. I personally like my brownies to be a little more cakey, but these were still good. I would definitely make them again, but I would add some baking powder to the batter next time.

[email protected]I made these brownies for a bake sale and they were a huge hit! I sold out of them in no time. They were so moist and fudgy, and the walnuts added a nice crunch. I will definitely be making these again for future bake sales.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of walnuts, but these brownies were still delicious. The brownie itself was moist and fudgy, and the walnuts added a nice crunch. I would definitely make these again, even if I left out the walnuts.
