FUDGE Brownies

  These brownies are not only fudgy they are F-U-D-G-Y! (apparently according to spell check fudgy is not a word, oh well I'm sticking with it) They have a dense, moist texture definitely not cake like brownies! More like pieces of fudge! I almost wish I drank milk because you might need a good quart of milk to get them down!
I don't know about your house but in our house a 9X13 pan of brownies might yield, oh maybe 4 - 6 servings lol well these we cut into 2" little squares!

Part of the heavy chocolate taste is my own fault.  I was in a big rush and I just poured the cocoa out of the can into the measuring cup, I'm thinking I should have sifted it first then measured! I literally had about 5 minutes to get them in the oven!!

If you like chocolate you should like these! *hint* maybe sift the cocoa!

Let's get started:

melt

 (recipe called for butter I almost always use margarine!)

 

add

 

stir :o)

can't get any more simple than that!

 

eggs & vanilla in the mixer ~ give them a spin

 

very slowly ~ tiny amount at a time add the butter/ sugar mixture to the eggs

seriously don't rush this step you don't want scrambled eggs!!

 

dry ingredients ~ give it a stir

 

This is before it is cooked ... you'll notice it looks about the same after it is cooked it is soooooo thick it doesn't really move while cooking! I forgot a picture of the chocolate chips!

 

Cooked! See not much different!

 

Thick ~ heavy ~ dense

 pick an adjective!
