Homemade Brownies

Last night, I was about to DIE for brownies. We are trying to do P90X, so there was nothing in the house sweet. However, I found the best recipe for brownies at COOKS.COM. They were so good and easy. I may never buy boxed brownie mix again. These took the same amount of time and effort as a box mix and taste so much better.

Hank was so excited that I was baking. He ran through the house saying, "cookie, cookie, brownie, brownie!" Hank and Gaga are ready for me to start baking cookies again. Maybe, I can when school starts back.

Substitution: We didn't have any cocoa in the pantry, so I substituted 4 blocks of semisweet Baker's chocolate.

Enjoy!
