Double Fudge Brownies
My work wife is so simple and easy all she wants for her birthday is brownies plain and simple. So here is the plain and simple recipe I use to make them! I add the chocolate chips in second to last and then add in the freshly brewed coffee to melt the chips a little so when they get mixed in it makes the brownies even more gooey.
