Ovaltine Brownies

[bergencounty]

 Had a craving for something sweet and wanted to use up the last of almost empty canisters in the cupboard.

Discovered a cup of pecans and a cup of Ovaltine left in the cannister.I spotted a recipe on the OVALTINE canister, so I gave it a try. Came out good, yummy w/ice cream.

... Wrap the leftovers up in some Reynolds wrap and    freze for school/work snacks....

Huh, interesting!! Sounds good. We just polished off our ovaltine :)

 It comes out a bit moist, but works well if served w/ice cream.  Not your standard brownie.

I knew there was something I was going to put on the grocery list!!! Ovaltine.  Got a sample not too long ago and it was great.  Haven't tried for years as it was not very good way back when(50's)
