About

Whole wheat flour offers a nutty taste that complements the walnuts in this recipe (and offers you a little sense of virtue, too). These brownies have a robust chocolate taste and are definitely for walnut lovers. The recipe is convenient, too, because the batter can be fully stirred together in the pot you melt the chocolate in. A great dessert and fewer dishes—a magical combination!
