The Best Butter Brownies Recipe

These brownies are amazing! They're so much better than box mix brownies, I urge you to switch to a recipe like this one.
YUMMY BUTTER BROWNIES INGREDIENTS:
10 tbsp. butter - melted
14 tbsp. chocolate chips
1 C. Sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp. salt
1Tbsp cocoa powder
2 eggs
2 Tbsp warm water
1 tsp hot chocolate mix
2/3 C. Flour
1 - 1 1/2 C. Walnuts

Bake at 375 for 28-30 minutes.

DIRECTIONS: 
Create a double boiler setup for the butter and chocolate chips. Put a few inches of water in a small saucepan, and place a 2 C. Pyrex measuring cup into the water. Add your butter, and turn on the stove to medium heat to begin boiling the water. This will allow the ingredients to melt slowly. Once the butter is almost completely melted, add the chocolate chips and begin to stir. Once melted, mix until well incorporated, and remove from heat.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine sugar, butter and chocolate chip mixture, vanilla, salt, cocoa powder, eggs, water, hot chocolate mix, and flour. Stir until combined well and batter is smooth.
Put 1 to 1 1/2 C. walnuts and crush them with a measuring cup. 
Add walnuts to the other ingredients, and stir until combined. 
Now, prep your jars. Spray cooking spray on them, and wipe off any excess spray from the tops and outsides of jars. Using a regular tablespoon, carefully scoop batter into jars, (a little over half full), making sure to avoid getting batter on tops of jars. Add a whole walnut to each jar just for a special touch. 
Bake at 375 for about 28-30 minutes. More time may be needed, so once a toothpick is inserted and comes out batter-free, your brownies are done! Be careful when handling the jars, as they are very hot.

One Pot - Super Easy and Tasty Pesto Pasta Recipe

Pasta couldn't get much easier than this. It's nice and light, and super fresh. 

Here are most of the ingredients. You will also need grated parmesan cheese, 2-3 Tbsp of extra virgin olive oil (or your favorite), as well as some salt and Italian seasoning, to taste. 
How To Make This Super Easy Pesto Pasta:

Boil noodles as directed. Strain and return to original pot. Scoop about 3-4 tablespoons of Pesto onto noodles. Also add your olive oil, Italian seasoning, and salt. Stir together, combining well. Turn the heat back on to low. Add mozzarella pearls, and stir. They should melt pretty quickly. Once they're melted, sprinkle past with parmesan cheese, and stir once more. 
Serve topped with more parmesan cheese and chopped tomatoes. 

Enjoy!
