I had clipped this recipe from a magazine many years ago...made it often and loved it! Lost the recipe in the early 90s after a move...have been searching all cookbooks i could find, sent letters to all the magazines i know i subscribed to and begged them to search for it...asked my mom and sisters to search for it as i had handwritten the recipe for them, but no one could find it...i have even searched on the internet, but never found the right recipe..until NOW...this is it..the best doggone "brownie" recipe ever created...thanks so much for posting it...you have made my day...i love it as it is, but i have added chocolate chips, and sometimes have added coconut...and always fantastic...it is moist, dark, and best of all, not too sweet....just sprinkle a little powdered sugar on top (and don't overbake them!) thanks forever, beve...
