Charlotte's "Best of Show" Brownies

I found this recipe in the Billings Gazette.

This recipe was the recipe of a lady who died in 2007, but won the "Best of Show" ribbon at the fair for these brownies!

I would give these brownies a ribbon!

They were moist and full of chocolatey goodness!  I ran out of time and didn't even get the frosting made too!  They were delicious without the frosting and I am sure they would be great with too!

You make them in a 9 x 9 pan, which is good because you wont have leftovers to eat all day the next day!
