Until this weekend I have never made a homemade brownie...it's just too easy to use the package stuff, right? Well after you try this recipe you will never open another box because it's SO easy and extremely delicious!!! I added a little holiday "bling" to it by adding some Peppermint Oreos and couldn't have been more happy with the results. I am bringing these too a cookie exchange, I hope everyone will enjoy them as much as I do!
