"I adopted this one from the RecipeZaar account. I have not had a chance to make this. **I am sure that you could easily substitute regular chocolate chips for the morsels. I don't think I can find morsels here so I will use normal chocolate chips when I make these... hopefully that will be soon!"

I did a great bunch of sticky,yummy, brownies with this recipe. I ran out of butter/margarine though so I used olive oil instead. I also threw in dry toasted,unsalted peanuts into the batter before baking. Nice! Thank you for the recipe.

I'm sure no one cares about the snow this time of year, but these brownies, will, I'm sure, make a big hit this evening when guests arrive! They're different enough to attract attention, & tasty enough to satisfy any chocoholic who seriously indluges! A very, very nice change from those with 'regular' frosting!

I am the Document Administrator for an engineering firm here in Sarnia.  I am quite happy with the position and think I'll be there for a long, long time.  It's nice to finally be settled in a job. I am married to a wonderful man who takes great care of me.  My two teenage sons from my previous marriage love and adore him as well.  Things are wonderful at home. As I am working full time, I don't have as much time to cook the fantastic meals that I would love to.  Instead, we end up cooking a lot of quick, somewhat-healthy meals.
