Brownie Sundaes

Sometimes, okay, let's be honest, most of the time a desire for something hits me and I can not get it off my mind until I have it. Brownies have plagued me for the past few weeks and I knew I would not be happy until I had some. Not just brownies, but brownies topped with ice cream, and maybe a little chocolate on top for good measure. So I finally broke down and went to the store for walnuts, which was the only ingredient coming between me and my craving.

Everyone has different ideas of what the perfect brownie contains. I like them fudgey, but slightly cakey with walnuts. The Hub, who I have mentioned in previous posts, had tendencies to be picky. Most of my marriage proclaiming he does not like nuts in brownies. He would not have it - not in his home. Well, just recently, he finally revealed to me, maybe he does like nuts in his brownies? But only walnuts, because apparently, he loves walnuts and really respects them as a nut. News to me. Maybe he could have shared this earlier. For years, I have been making nut-free brownies. Oh well, we can only move forward.

This recipe has been a tried and true that never seems to fail. I have tried countless recipes, but this one seems to be my favorite. Maybe because I can keep all ingredients in my pantry at all times for when such a craving hits. Or, maybe because they seem to have the right balance of cake and fudgeyness(I know, not a real word). This recipe comes from a Hershey's cook booklet that I have acquired along the way somehow and do not plan to give up.
