Adding Nuts, Chocolate Chips and More!

The great thing about brownies is that they are so versatile. You can eat them plain or you can add just about anything to give them an extra kick. We sometimes will add different nuts like walnuts or pecans to our brownies. But you could also add extra chocolate chips, candy pieces or even something like mint. These brownies are also great for making a brownie fudge Sundae. Just make sure they are a little warm and add your vanilla ice-cream and fudge. HOLY MOLY they are so good.
