For all my brownie lovers, this is for you!
What you will find in this recipe, as with all of my recipes, is a delicious result that’s quick to make and uses common easy-to-find ingredients.
I also wanted to create a brownie recipe that uses a bit less sugar than most, so I only use 1 cup of sugar and cocoa powder rather than melted chocolate for that super-rich chocolatey taste.
I also use mix in nuts and top the brownie with marshmallows, and chopped chocolate, but these are all optional and you can choose your favourite combination of toppings.
Enjoy!
