Toll House Brownies are awesome. Really. These cookies start with that famous Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie flavor but made in brownie form. Then I drizzle a chocolate/vanilla glaze over top. Yes, please! These jewels are a chocolate lover’s delight and certainly addictive. But if you’re looking for a marvelous way to get your chocolate fix, then these brownies need to be on your “to make” list, pronto. 🙂
Years ago, John worked for the Baptist Convention of New England as the Business Administrator. We went up in early January 1990 and stayed almost seven years in the Northborough/Worcester area. Since we came from sunny Florida, the weather was a dramatic change. Call me crazy, but I loved shoveling snow and my kids enjoyed building igloos and playing ice hockey (sort of) on our ice-covered lawn.
These rich, delectable brownies are filled with miniature chocolate chips and pecan chips. Then they're drizzled with a luscious chocolate glaze. They're terrific for tailgating and holiday parties, potlucks, baby showers and backyard barbecues.
