Lunchbox Brownies

 

 As I was pouring the sugar from the pack into the container, I noticed this recipe "Lunchbox brownies". I thought this may just lift Gudiya's mood as she was under the weather due to cough and cold for past few days and was dreading to go back to school next day, fearing the amount of missed work she would need to work on by missing the recess!

I made the brownie pieces smaller, hoping for some portion control. I didn't have low fat milk so I used evaporated milk. I also added a handful of walnut pieces as I feel walnuts and chocolate brownie make a terrific combo.

Please note that I used the following recipe.

My modified - albeit just a little modification - version is as follows.
