Chewy Gooey Walnut Brownies Recipe

Completely satisfy your sweet-tooth with one of these Chewy Gooey Walnut Brownies. Using baking chocolate in these delicious treats gives them the fudge-like texture mixed with the crunch of fresh walnuts. Heavenly! Imagine the aroma in your kitchen when you take these beauties fresh from the oven.

So, I didn’t start that day to make brownies. I was actually looking to make a silk or satin pie, I can’t remember which. Either way, something went wrong. But wait, I already had the eggs to room temperature and the chocolate was melted…I was temporarily stuck. Looking at the ingredients I had sitting out, they started to look a lot like brownies. I had to alter an old recipe my mom gave me, but that’s OK, these turned out great! And my silky-satin disaster was avoided.

Serving Chewy Gooey Walnut Brownies

I never use to line the 9 x 13 pan until I tried it. Yes, I do all things the hard way first. Try lining it with foil. What I like about it is that you can lift the whole baked brownie out of the pan and cut in on a flat surface. I serve brownies a lot at my local rescue mission, so when I serve them, I want them looking their best. The knife needs to be wiped a few times, but well worth it to keep the edges cleaner.

Although I am a believer in eating balanced meals, let’s face it…brownies should be a meal of their own. If you do, however, what to have them as a dessert I can tell you first hand that they are delicious with my Grilled Lemon Shrimp and Veggie Kabobs and my Chicken Chilaquiles Casserole. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it.
