“Best of the Brownies”

---

This recipe was printed in our local newspaper over 30 years ago as the winner of a brownie bake-off between Girl Guide troupes. My mom clipped it out and ever since then it has been our family brownie recipe – it really is the best I’ve ever tried, and super quick and easy to make.
