The Best Fudgy Brownies
These are THE BEST fudgy brownies... trust me. Or better yet, make them yourself. My fudgy brownies encompass the best parts of a brownie: the dense chewiness, rich chocolatey flavor, and perfect moistness. They're so soft and melt in the mouth while being perfectly baked. Also, they're choc full of chocolate (of course).
