I am not a snobby baker; I will gladly use a boxed cake mix and doctor it up to make taste homemade. But I have to tell you, I really dislike boxed brownie mixes. I can taste the "chemical" right away and for some reason it's so much more apparent than a cake mix. So I don't even keep them in the pantry, which is no problem, because this recipe is just as easy.
But man, do these taste infinitely better than a mix. The brownies are nice and fudgy on the inside with a crackly top on the outside. You can throw some chocolate chips in the batter if you want to up the chocolate, but they are pretty perfect just the way they are.
And the best part" You don't need a mixer and everything can be done in ONE bowl. Easy-peasy.
