Cassie's Notes:

This is another of my families favorite brownies.

Very chocolatey and a superb fluffy melt - in - your - mouth topping..

Enjoy!!

My pictures.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degree F.

Prepare a 13 x 9 x 2 inch. baking pan with cooking spray. I used a glass baking dish.

In a microwave or double boiler, ( I started melting the butter, then added the chocolate and held the pan above the flame, kept stirring till chocolate melted). melt the chocolate and butter; cool for 10 minutes.

Add sugar; mix well. Stir in eggs and vanilla. ( I whisk the eggs first) then add.

Add flour; mix well. Stir in the walnuts.

Pour batter into pan. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes. (mine took 40 minutes), or until toothpick comes out with moist crumbs. ( do not over bake).

Cool completely.

For topping:

Melt chocolate chips, water and butter in a microwave or double boiler; stir until smooth. Cool to room temperature.

Fold in the whipped cream.

Enjoy!

Spread over cooled brownies. Chill before cutting.

Yummmmmmmm!!!!!! The only problem with these is that there are several things that need to be cooled including the baked brownies.

We are impatient around here! :)

I hear ya Tammy...just be very careful with the sheet cake when taking from the oven..the last one I made I almost lost it..I tilted it somehow..and it just started sliding off the pan..lol I was so mad..it was smashed on the side where I caught it...wasn't the prettiest thing, but sure didn't affect the taste...It was the one I took to Moms for Christmas...I didn't hear anyone complaining though..

Oh yes, I forgot to report back on the sheet cake but it is absolutely divine. I had better make it to the gym this month for sure, especially if I make those brownies and I'm sure I will soon!
