My DH has never been a huge fan of desserts. The only thing he really loves are brownies.
A brownie sundae to be exact. No matter what restaurant we are at, if
they have a brownie sundae he is going to order it. After a while we
started making the box brownies and going crazy over brownie sundaes at
home.
One day I realized, “I can probably make these homemade and they will
taste a lot better.” So I started my quest to create the perfect
homemade brownies. This easy brownie recipe doesn’t call for butter but
uses oil instead. That is frowned on by some but it made for a better
brownie for my palate. Let me know what you think.Delicious Rating: Chocolatey, chewy, delicious. This is the perfect homemade brownie recipe. They aren’t cakey but chewy, like brownies should be. We dress up the brownies with caramel & chocolate sauce. Top with vanilla ice cream and additional pecans…need I say more?
