  i often just put all of it in the pan and stick it in the oven instead of using more dishes and in stages. It still turns out YUMMY
  This is a new favorite at our house. It's my "go to vegetarian" night. My kids don't know that so shhh.

THE BEST BROWNIES IN THE WORLD!!!` Tasty Eats at home

Ok I am going to admit it. I have been making brownies from a box for years! I love the Big fancy ones at Costco. But then we ran out and I really needed brownies for an FHE and thought I can whip up a batch. So I tried pintrest and thought that the ones called the best brownies in the world should be good enough! I was a little skeptical because it only called for 1/4 cup flour (ok I actually doubled it and put them in a 9x13 because an 8x8 isn't big enough for a family of 7 plus 2 missionaries! BUT these lived up to their name! I won't even by that box anymore! The missionaries agreed BEST IN THE WORLD!

• ¼ cup flour
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla salt (you can use regular salt for this)

5. Now add your eggs and vanilla, stirring until it’s smooth.
6. Add chocolate chips, flour and vanilla salt. Stir until well blended.
7. Pour into pan and place in oven. I always tap my pan to get out any bubbles and make it even.
8. Bake for 35-45 minutes, toothpick inserted should come out clean when done.
9. Remove and cool on a rack.
10. Serve with a smile.
