We love brownies. Growing up I think my mom made brownies at least once a week. This recipe come from a bakery I use to work at and they taste great plain or with buttercream icing.

These brownies are a great treat when we are in the fields in the spring or fall. I also love to make them for the holidays and add different flavors of icing, like mint for Christmas or St. Patrick’s Day or strawberry or raspberry for Valentine’s Day. I also love them with peanut butter icing and mini chocolate chips. This recipe is so versatile and a staple at our house.

Tips For Making Homemade Brownies from Scratch
- Darker pans will cook faster. I prefer to bake with lighter pans for best results.
- A cake tester can be used to make sure the center of the brownies are cooked fully.
- Pan size matters when baking. Too small of a pan and your brownies will take longer to cook and too big of a pan your brownies will be thin and over baked.
