For someone who loves brownies as much as I do, it’s surprising there isn’t a simple walnut brownie recipe on the blog yet, right? Well, I’m fixing that right away!
These brownies are decadent, dense, fudgy and delicious! Too many adjectives? Forgive me, got a little carried away with all the yumminess! 🙂 It’s worth it, trust me.
Super easy to make and even easier to polish off, these are a must add to your repertoire.
The ingredients are the standard brownie go -to ones : butter, chocolate, cocoa powder, flour, sugar and salt. Plus throw in a bunch of walnuts for extra crunch and prettiness 🙂 I also added a touch of coffee powder to bump up the chocolate flavour and balance the sweetness.
The batter is nice and thick, which guarantees a fudgy interior. The best kind!
I took these to office and my flatmate took some to church. Polished off in no time! It’s such a great feeling to see people really enjoying food you make! The perfect way to spread the love 🙂
With all the health precautions on right now and most of us working from home, this is a great thing to rustle up and brighten up the mood.
Be careful though, these are addictive 🙂
