      I remember coming home from school to the smell of the brownies. They were delicious. I'll have to broaden my cooking abilities to baking them myself. Thanks

        The memory of coming home to those brownies is one of my special memories. Mom is a great cook and very loving with her brownies and egg salad sandwiches, pork roasts...the list goes on and on. And, she keeps us all so healthy. M and D's example with exercise is very special too. Love you all, P

      This recipe was too sweet and had no flour or baking powder. Here is a modified version. Let me know what you think.
