Notes

These brownies are best served warm out of the oven but can be enjoyed at room temperature. They can be topped with whipped cream, ice cream, powdered sugar, or chocolate sauce for extra indulgence. To store, place in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days or freeze for up to three months.
