Easy Fudgy Brownies

Easy Fudgy Brownies are a dense, fudgy, chocolaty, oh what the heck they are heavenly for a chocolate lover like me or maybe you.

Easy fudgy brownies are the ultimate fudge brownie they even include chocolate chips in the batter. Totally dense and chewy brownies you are sure to fall in love with them.

I don’t think that I ever met a brownie that I didn’t love. I grew in a family that adores chocolate. If you would come to one of our family get together you would see that our desserts are usually chocolate something or other. If it is possible I think that the chocolate love thing may be in my genes passed down through the generations.

These easy fudgy brownies are pure heaven in my book as they are but I took it step further with this chocolate butter frosting. It’s a frosting that my mom made when I was a kid. It is actually a vanilla frosting, but I decided that it would not hurt to throw in a bit more chocolate into the mix.

The frosting is light and fluffy almost like a mousse. It definitely takes these brownies over the top.

The brownies are dense and chewy and did I mention that they are made with simple ingredients that you probably have in your kitchen right now as I typing this. That is always an awesome thing. I hate it when I find a recipe that I am dying to make and I don’t have all the ingredients.

Make sure that you make these brownies when you have people around so that you can share or you may want to eat the whole pan by yourself. I make sure to make my chocolate recipes when my kids are visiting just for that reason.
