Easiest Brownie Recipe EVER

I don't claim to be an expert in brownies, but when Jon first made this a while back, I was hooked. I'm picky about them though - I don't like them airy and cakey, I like them dense and fudgy. These came out with the perfect moisture (not to dry) and not too wet/gooey. In fact, the recipe says to bake it for 35 minutes. You can probably cook it for less (30-32 minutes).

I made it the night before:


Cut it up the morning after:


They came out exactly how I like them.
Armed with my glass of milk, I'm ready to chow down!! YUM!
