I love finding all of these great recipes online. I found one today that we made over here. It’s called The Ultimate Brownie Recipe.

The Ultimate Brownie is my absolute favorite brownie. It is tall like a cakey-brownie, but is dense like a fudgy-brownie. I’m sure it will be one of your favorite brownie recipes too.

I have never made brownies from scratch before, but these are just fantastic. We didn’t have a blender. (Why do some recipes assume everyone reading them has a blender?) But we just stirred by hand and viola. Worked great.

They even made a separate ‘photo blog‘ of the process on making brownies. How awesome is that?

But what makes for a great brownie recipe? Here’s my idea. I like a big batch, like the one produced here fills a 9 by 13 inch pan. I also like fudge-like brownies, but not so bad you can’t open your mouth after a few bites. Cake ones are OK, but if I wanted cake, I’d make cake.

There’s also a chocolate frosting I’ve had before, other people have made them but I haven’t found that recipe yet. I like to drop some powdered sugar all over my brownies. I’m not big on nuts. I like plain brownies, or ones with chocolate chips in there.

If you have a better recipe to challenge this one, leave a comment. I’d love to do comparison batches. What’s the best recipe for brownies online?
