Notes
- Recipe Tips.
- Store. Allow the brownies to cool completely. To store a whole pan, lift the block out of the pan and wrap it with plastic wrap and again with foil. Sliced brownies can be placed in an airtight container or ziploc. Store at room temperature for 2-3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

- Use any brand of fudgy brownie box mix, just be sure it fits a 9x13-inch pan.
- Do not make the brownie batter according to the box. Just use the brownie mix powder and follow this recipe as written.
- For clean easy slices, use a plastic knife. It will slice through it like butter!
