~ wickedly good brownies ~
We like any kind of chocolate, so I thought I would get rid of 2 bars of dark chocolate I had hidden away from my munchkins. LOL! These brownies turned out awesome. I love a brownie that has a sheen and these ones certainly fit that bill. They smell so good baking too! Enjoy!
