Best Brownies

These truly are the best brownies on the planet!

I like to make them with reeses peanut butter chips sprinkled on top before baking, or pour a bag of Andes mint baking chips on top after baking, then spread around once chips have melted for the best mint brownies ever ~OR~ my personal favorite are cream cheese brownies. (see recipe below) Enjoy!
