I have shared this recipe before and now I’m sharing it again with a printable recipe card because they really are my families favorite brownies!
So soft and gooey, Isn’t that the way brownies are supposed to be?!!! This recipe is also super easy and I always have these ingredients on hand.
To get the softest and gooiest brownies, make sure not to over bake them. A trick that I have also, is I use Wilton’s non-stick 8 by 8 brownie pan and they never stick. After they bake I allow them to cool for 5 minutes and then flip them over onto parchment paper. I cut them this way and my knife doesn’t drag or butcher them.
My family and I make this recipe a couple times a month and we still LOVE them!

My family and I love to add extra chocolate to our brownies. You can add any kind of chocolate chips and chocolate chunks to your recipe. We added milk chocolate chips to our brownies in the photo. ENJOY 🙂
