In my house we loved boxed brownies! Betty Crocker happens to be one of our favorites. This recipe for fudgy brownies is even more delicious yet has many qualities of a box mix that people love. Fudgy center? Check! Flaky top layer? Check! Delicious flavor? Check! These also come out great in a 9×13 pan (check closer to 20 mins for baking time) for a thinner brownie. If you like a thicker brownie, go for the 9×9 pan. I always line my pans with nonstick foil for easy removal!
