Hold up your right hand and solemnly swear, "I will never use a box of brownie mix again." And you won't after you taste these brownies. They are a super simple, from scratch recipe. The basic brownie. You can add chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, pecans, you name it. Customize them to your liking. These brownies require minimal effort, not much more than using a mix, and the results are so worth it!
