MARY JANE'S BROWNIES



Mary Jane's Brownies image

This is a recipe from my best friend's mom. These are really fudgy brownies with icing. I never add the nuts, because I don't like nuts in my brownies, but if you like them go for it! The original recipe calls for an 11x13 pan, but we alway used a 9x13 pan or I use my deep dish baker from Pampered Chef. You can also do the melting in the microwave, which is what I do for the icing in a big batter bowl.

This family recipe was almost lost. Grandma gave this recipe to Mary S. after the dementia set in. Sarah was at Mary's after Grandma's funeral getting a recipe. This recipe fell out of Mary's box and Sarah picked it up, recognizing her mother's handwriting. Mary pled with Sarah to let her keep it saying that Grandma had given it to her. Sarah made her a copy and the original recipe is in Sarah's recipe box and now here.
