SUPER SIMPLE, SUPER GOOD BROWNIES

“This Summer, my wife baked these brownies up at the Cabin and I missed out.  Well, I needed to find out more about these brownies of legend, so I gave them a try.  They did not disappoint.  Easy, chocolaty, moist, delicious.  Nothing wrong and everything right.  Enjoy!”
