  <body>Finding the perfect brownie is hard! Some are too sweet, some are too floury, some have too little nuts and chips in them, and when I tried to bake them in the past, the brownies looked more like fudge&#8230;or puddles.  

This is the perfect recipe. Slightly crusty on the outside, perfectly chewy, fudgy and gooey on the inside. Full of chips, nuts and chocolate crunch&#8230;.heaven.
