I like mine chewy not cake like and nothing beats adding a little marshmallow cream to the top when you bake them. One of the mixes used to come like this and they were the best brownies ever...ever!!!
We use the recipie right off the Hersheys cocoa container, in all it's yankee goodness. Make some homemade caramel and drip it over the top. No frosting.
I only like brownies that are made by EddieWasSnubbed's girlfriend. They are the best! The best I tell you!
