Let me just warn you now, before you read any further.
These brownies (umm…more like fudge…let’s be honest here) are INDULGENT, sinful, COMA-INDUCING, and diet-ruining.
So, I thought it only fair to give you a warning ;)
I was quite the little baker when I was 12 years old.
The last time I made these brownies it was circa 1988…you know…jellies, charm necklaces, layered socks kind of 1988 – HA!
But, like an old friend you haven’t seen in forever, once I made them ate them, it was just like no time had passed…still oh so yummy, and oh so very sinful!
Well, let’s get to it – are you sitting down?
