Sooooo...this is why I cannot stay home & watch John Wayne movies all day. It gives me the munchies like nobody's business. Chocolate, of course, being my drug of choice. I signed onto pinterest & plugged in "chocolate" and voila...chocolate brownies appeared! After taking a quick inventory of my pantry I realized I had all the fixings. The rest, as they say, is history. So long diet & helloooooo Mr. Brownie Cookie delight...

Below is the recipe in case you find yourself unable to get these off of your mind. I will say that I added pecans & I would only bake for 8-9 minutes. They come out with the PERFECT shiny, flaky top. Enjoy!
