These really are delicious brownies! And incredibly easy to make with ingredients I already had on hand. The recipe below is her original recipe. I've noted below the recommended modifications.

NOTE:. I made the following adjustments to the original recipe above:. 1) I used 1/2 cup of pecans and 2) I baked for 35 minutes and think it could have been even less cooking time. I'd suggest to start checking at 25 minutes.
