Oh, yeah?? Well, chocolate is good for you, the darker the better; and pecans have the lowest saturation oil of all nuts. So these brownies can bring you back from the dead. . .well, maybe the near-dead.

Saturday is our annual family "celebrate December and January Birthdays" party. This year it is one Son, one Daughter, three Grandsons and two Great Grandsons. The idea is to seperate birthdays from Christmas. Very important if you are a kid born on 12/22. Two grandsons share that birthday.

JB made brownies. They are to kill for.

Start with a box of Ghirardelli's Double Chocolate brownie mix.
Add a crushed Lindt 70% cocoa dark chocolate bar.
One egg.
1/3 cup water.
1/3 cup canola oil.
2 cups pecan halves.

Stir em up good and pour (spoon?) into a 9X12" pan presprayed with PAM.
Bake at 325* for 45 minutes. After cooling, cut 'em up into about 24 pieces and refrigerate for the grandbuddies. No touching before the party!

While baking. . . LICK THE BOWL!! Oh, wow!! It's like being 7 years old in grandmas kitchen again.

Now. How do I get it out of my beard?

Wow JB, they sound yummy. A person can never get too much chocolate. It may not solved all your problems but it sure makes them easier to swallow.

I will add this to my recipe folder.

They are only about 50 calories each, Jay, and they are loaded with good-for-you stuff like chocolate and chocolate and chocolate and pecans.

Food for the soul. :)
