Absolutely Best Brownies

SUBMITTED BY: COUNTRYDAYZ PHOTO BY: Allrecipes

"This are the easiest and most delicious brownies that I have ever eaten. They are so moist and super quick and easy to make. For best results, use a Dutch processed cocoa. For less cake-like brownies, use all-purpose flour instead of self rising. "
