Tips

Stir 1⁄4 cup walnuts or chocolate chips into batter.

Swap different extracts for vanilla—try peppermint, orange, or cherry extract!

For an easy-to-prepare icing, melt chocolate chips and pour over warm brownies. When they cool, the brownies will have a smooth, chocolate glaze.

Cooking time in the microwave varies based on microwave wattage. Microwaved brownies taste best when eaten the same day.
