INTRODUCTION

The thing about Chocolate Brownies is, that they are just so darn yummy.  The chocolate smell hits you as you lift it to your mouth, your teeth sink into the gooeyness and the sweet chocolately warmth fills your mouth as you chew. There is no chance that I’m only having one, and my family loves to fight over the extra chewy crusts while they are still hot from the oven.  This is my go to quick and easy dessert when I’m strapped for time.

I have no idea how long they will last in a biscuit tin, I’ve never had any left over to put in a tin, so you’re on your own there.
