Classic Chocolate Brownies

Basic classic chocolate brownies recipe made from scratch! You’ll never make a box mix ever again!

Happy 2015, people! Here’s wishing you an awesome year! 🙂

Everyone has his / her favorite classic chocolate brownies recipe. I’m a little biased towards this one. Made with the best quality cocoa, these brownie bars are anything but ordinary! I haven’t been able to get these brownies out of my mind for weeks.

Seriously. Lots of Chocolate in every bite. Can you stop yourself?

If you can, well, we can’t be friends anymore! 😉

Anyway, having an easy brownie recipe in your baking repertoire is priceless. It’s something that you can bring along to potlucks, office parties, birthday parties, and basically anywhere you need to feed a crowd some kinda dessert. And trust me when I tell ya, you don’t need to be buying brownie mix anymore. This literally takes as few as 4 ingredients.
