Delicate Chocolate

The brownies have a very nice and delicate chocolate flavor. So if you are looking for a rich, fudge brownie, this isn’t it.

Melting the shortening and chocolate is the only thing you need to do in a saucepan. I used baking chocolate squares. Perhaps you could increase the chocolate flavor a bit by using powder. . .

The brownies are the perfect blend of crisp and soft.

I used walnuts for the nuts. They were a nice bit of crunch.

We really enjoyed them.
