CBC Brownies
My Gram taught me that family and love is cooking. The original brownie recipe that has been in my family for over 100 years we always baked together. I took this recipe and brought it up to another level. Eggland’s Best stands for family quality and love in what you bake, and I use that to bring joy into my own family. My gram would be proud.
