GRANNY’S FUDGE BROWNIE LOVE

(For cakelike brownies, use 3 tablespoons water, 1/2 cup vegetable oil and 3 eggs).
Directions:
1. Heat oven as directed on the box. Grease bottom of pan.
2. Stir Brownie Mix, water, oil and eggs in medium bowl until well blended. Spread in pan.
3. Bake as directed on the box or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out almost clean; cool.

To make the brownies even more special, try 1/2 cup of crushed mini pretzels or potato chips. For a fruity chew, try 1/2-1 cup of dried cherries or cranberries, or coconut. And you can always add more chocolate or 1/2-1 c of chopped candy bars.
