Deep Dish Brownies

 I've decided to go on a bit of a health kick in an attempt to be a healthier person. Sadly, this is the kind of thing I'm going to have to be giving up...and it makes me sooooo upset!

I made these a while ago, but looking at them now gets my stomach grumbling. I could totally go for a deep dish brownie right now and it's only 10am!


The thing I love about these brownies is that they are so incredibly easy to make. No fuss, no elaborate ingredients or difficult instructions, just put everything in a bowl, mix it up and pour it in the pan!

Hope you enjoy them, I will live vicariously through all of you!
