Notes
Serve the brownies warm with vanilla ice cream or drizzle with chocolate sauce. Store the dry brownie mix in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to three months. The baked brownies can be stored covered at room temperature for about a week or refrigerated for longer freshness. For extra fudginess, substitute melted butter for vegetable oil. You can also add nuts or dried fruits for extra texture.
