My Triple Chocolate Brownie Recipe is from my Mammy (my mom’s mom). She was well known in our family for her brownies. She was also well known for her Forgotten Meringue Cookies and Zucchini Cookies but her brownies were her biggest claim to fame. Thick, chewy, chocolatey. Her homemade fudge brownies were the best I’ve ever tasted.

I’m dying to try this recipe, don’t get me wrong I enjoy a moist fudgey brownie, but I also like them to be chewy ? Any tips on what I can add?
Try underbaking them a little, that will keep them chewy or just use egg yokes.
That’s so sweet that you still have her apron! I treasure recipes like this that get past on and loved by the family. I tried these without the coffee (since we don’t drink it and never have it on hand) and they were still wonderfully chocolately and delicious!
