Nina Simonds visits the kitchens of America’s Test Kitchen (americastestkitchen.com) on the day they were trying THIRTEEN recipes for the ‘Best Brownie Recipe Ever’!! “Unfortunately, I had to leave before the tasting. But who doesn’t love a good brownie or two with a glass tall glass of cold milk? YUM!MIE!!! I love chocolate, BUT I am not as much a devotee as my Dad, brother, and my husband who MUST have a bite of chocolate EVERY day. My Dad and brother are BIG Hershey’s fans, but my husband, Don, has cultivated a love for DEEP, DARK chocolate. However, when it comes to brownies, that is another matter. I confess that I am a die-hard brownie lover-… Either the plain chocolate variety, no nuts please, AS WELL AS cream cheese, OR chocolate chip/butterscotch brownie variations. Don’t ask me why, but Don and my son Jesse, prefer chocolate chip cookies. We ALWAYS have some frozen ones on hand in my freezer-courtesy of my talented assistant, Ingrid, who is a KILLER baker!” America’s test Kitchen and Cooks Illustrated fans will have to wait until January to see their version of the Best Dark Chocolate Brownie Recipe Ever, but in the meantime, go to www.spicesoflife.com for Nina Simonds favorite brownie recipe ever. Enjoy and don’t forget the cold milk!!!
