this brownie is so fudgy! i forgot to add the vanilla extract, but i discovered i'm not really a giant huge fan of vanilla extract flavor. maybe i have bad extract...but in the past when i've used it, the flavor is really pungent. anyways back to the brownie -- the edges got a little burned on the top but i blame my apt oven for that. the thermometer isn't very accurate and i had to chase the heat. great brownies though! i wanna make these for my sweetie and i'm sure these would go great with a scoop of vanilla!
