Brownies

"Brownies"

I received this recipe from my old boss and good friend, Mary Bishop. She was the Director of the Crawfordsville Public Library when I was the Children's Librarian and she would make SOMETHING (our favorite request was this or the Lemon Squares -- see below) for each employee's meeting -- hey, we loved going to meetings -- can you say that????

These brownies are like none you've ever made before and pretty easy to make -- try 'em, you'll like 'em -- GUARANTEED!!!
