Homemade Brownies

I am a big brownie fan, um... to be honest, anything chocolatey I'm a fan of! I don't always have boxed brownies on hand though, so when I saw a pin on pinterest about homemade mixes that you could keep on your shelf I was intrigued. I had to give it a whirl! Seriously - one of the easiest and quickest brownie mixes to throw together... Almost as easy as the box mix and better tasting! :) I haven't made up multiple batches to store in my cupboard, but this recipe has simple enough ingredients that I usually have laying around my house! I love to throw some chocolate chips in the mix, just to up the chocolate factor. You could also go with some nuts, whatever shakes your tail feathers! Maybe, just maybe you can throw some chocolate frosting on top and go all decadent! :) How about brownies with a pretzel crust? Come back Monday for that recipe! :)
