Directions
Better-Than-Cash Brownies, I’ve been making these brownies for a while — they’re easy and inexpensive, and absolutely delicious — but had neglected to post the recipe here. I recently made two batches of these as a thank-you gift for someone who refused to take payment for some work done for me, and they were a huge hit. I then realized I couldn’t point anyone towards the recipe, as I often do, so it’s definitely time to get this recipe on Zaar so it can be shared with everyone! I was told that these were “better than cash”, hence the name!, Yummy, easy to make, no melting chocolate, like some other recipes I have tried. I think used the wrong sized tin, so will try a square one next time. Very nice will make these again, loved the coffee idea, made them for Easter Sunday, so thansk from Karren…, Deeee-licious! Thank you for posting this great recipe. I love the addition of the coffee, very different, and very good! I just put mini-Rollos on top to add some caramel. Haha… a little simpler, but still good!

Spread Batter Into Prepared Pan, Smoothing Top, and Scatter a Topping of Your Choice Nuts, Chocolate Chips, Etc, If Desired, Over Top. Twenty Pecan Halves or Walnut Halves, Evenly Spaced Out, Looks Great and Suits Those Who Don't Like Nuts in Brownies, as They Can Easily Be Picked Off. |

Bake in Preheated Oven For 30-32 Minutes. a Tester Should Come Out With Some Crumbs on It. Do not Overbake or Brownies Will not Be Fudgey. Let Cool, in Pan, Then Cut Into Small Squares. Expect These Brownies to not Cut Cleanly, Some Bits Will Cling to the Knife. |
