Fudgy Sour Cream Brownies Recipe
From The Ultimate Brownie Book. Although decadent to the nth degree, these brownies are actually light because the sour cream leavens that batter, causing them to rise up high in the pan. They will stay fresh for four days. They can be wrapped in wax paper, sealed in a freezer-safe bag, and frozen for up to 4 months.
