Brownies are one of the best desserts ever. I’ve never been successful making them from scratch (need to work on that!), but with a box, they are so quick and easy to throw together.

They make your house smell chocolatey.

You can eat them warm. You can eat them cold. Gooey or in a more solid form.

But there is one thing better than brownies. Can you guess what it is?

Brownies with a cup of walnuts or pecans added to the batter. Or half walnuts and half pecans. Yum!

Tonight I made walnut/pecan brownies and ate a piece with sliced banana and milk, all in one bowl. It was actually very scrumptious! My kids tried it the next day and liked it too. We are all bananas over brownies here!
