Once I accepted the reality that box mixes would not be a part of my life here, I began to search for an easy and tasty "from scratch" brownie recipe. This is the one I settled on and use all the time:By: Katrina

This recipe was originally posted here. I purposefully changed the name on my recipe to "Thank you God for a delicious, easy Fudgy Brownie Recipe." This time around I added peanut butter chips inside and out.
