Walnut Brownies image

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

These brownies are the perfect balance of fudgy and chewy. They're not too sweet, which I really appreciate.

I'm not a huge fan of walnuts, but I still really enjoyed these brownies. The chocolate flavor is so rich and decadent that the walnuts don't even matter.

I love that these brownies are made with melted butter. It makes them so moist and fudgy.

I didn't have any walnuts on hand, so I used pecans instead. They worked just as well and the brownies were still delicious.

I added a cup of chocolate chips to the batter and they were amazing! The chocolate chips melted in the brownies and created a gooey, chocolatey center.
