Scratch Brownies

Week two of brownies and it's time for the brownies made from scratch. When surfing the web for the scratch brownie recipe, I came across "Hershey's BEST Brownies." So obviously I chose that recipe because it stated they were the BEST brownies right in the name! I thought, well if the name says best, they must be best, right?! I found the recipe on: http://www.hersheys.com/recipes/recipe-details.aspx?id=5008&name=Best-Brownies but ommitted the chopped nuts and frosting for the top.

And, the name said it all! These brownies truly were the BEST! Well, maybe for scratch ones. For a novice baker like me, I still think box brownies are the best! ;) But these scratch brownies were still amazing! They were nice and moist and chocolatey, like a brownie should be!

These brownies did lose to the box brownies, but just barely! For taste they got a 4.4 average out of 5. For visual appeal they received a 4.3 average out of 5 (beating the box brownies!) Like I said, this recipe truly was the BEST! It's definitely one I will go back to the next time I want to make some scratch brownies!
