Awesome Chewy Brownies – these brownies are fudgy and chewy on the inside, and crackly on top. They truly are awesome!

I know what you’re thinking. Brownies, what the heck! I have like 23 recipes for brownies, why is she giving me another one? But let me tell you a little secret. I’ve never found a recipe for plain ole brownies that I like as much as the ones you make in a box.

I’ve got wonderful recipes for cheesecake brownies, mint brownies, peanut butter brownies, and several others. But no recipe for plain brownies that I like as much as a boxed mix. I know. Scandalous.

Here I call myself a cook and I like brownies from a box. But they’re just so darn good. I love the moist and fudgy middles. I adore the crackly tops. I’ve never been able to replicate that from scratch. Until now. So if you are a baker with a secret love of boxed brownies, this recipe is for you.

Try not to eat the entire pan warm and gooey out of the oven.
