WALNUT BROWNIES
I LEARNED to make these brownies in 1957 in home economics class. They were the first goodies I'd ever baked by myself. Now, 40 years later, I still make a batch occasionally. The recipe calls for basic ingredients on hand in most every kitchen, and the rich chocolate flavor is delicious. -Lorraine Silver, Chicopee, Massachusetts

Tips:
- To ensure the brownies have a chewy texture, avoid overmixing the batter. Overmixing can result in a dry and crumbly texture.
- To achieve a gooey center, remove the brownies from the oven a few minutes before they are completely done. The residual heat will continue to cook the brownies, resulting in a fudgy center.
- For a crispy crust, bake the brownies for a few minutes longer. The edges should be slightly browned and crispy.
- To prevent the brownies from sticking to the pan, grease the pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet chocolate.
- To add a crunchy texture, chop walnuts or pecans and fold them into the batter before baking.
- For a sweet and tangy flavor, top the brownies with a cream cheese frosting.
Conclusion:
These banana and walnut brownies are a delicious and decadent treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their chewy texture, gooey center, and crispy crust, these brownies are sure to be a hit with everyone.
