Yummmmmm! I made these today and I messed up a little, but they still taste good! I left the oven on preheat (oops!) and so I had to keep the brownies in the oven longer, therefore they were a bit crispy! They still tasted delicious , however. Will defintely make again. I will be posting picture of these shortly. Thanks for the recipe.

I love Recipezaar! I have found many great recipes on this site! Since I've found zaar, I've been spending more time making recipes from zaar than I have from my dozens of cookbooks. What can I say....zaar members post darn good recipes! I wish that I could spend more time cooking but I tend to keep meals simple because I work full time as an Microsoft Exchange E-mail Administrator and I spend the rest of my time taking care of my three year old toddler. He demands so much of my time that I don't have as much time to cook as I used to. My favorite hobbies are collecting recipes and photography. I am an amateur photographer and I take pictures at almost every chance that I get. The picture that is posted on this page is a self portrait.
