She told me she made it all the time at home. About a month ago, she brought me the recipe. Today, I ...

Melting the butter and chocolate on low heat. The apartment smelled like a big slice of chocolate heaven. Sweet Bear was the official mixer of all the ingredients. She had fun drizzling the chocolate over the flour making pictures. The finished product. I will sprinkle powdered sugar over them at the school when I am serving the kids. The brownies turned out great. It is a really easy recipe to follow. I made the first batch with walnuts and the second without. My second batch didn't turn out because I pulled them out too soon.

My mother took into her work one of the tartes that I had made using this recipe. Everyone begged for the recipe. Two of her bosses told her it was delicious and ...
