In fact, why don't you make them both ways and tell us which gets more raves? As for eating, they are the perfect brownies to discover in your lunch box, take to a picnic, or give as a gift. Once, I even wrapped them up and snuck them into a rock concert. Hence, their name! Feel free to rename them for yourself!

Variation

Superfast Brownies: When I'm short on time, I make these Rock 'n' Roll Brownies with my favorite basic package brand. I prepare the mix as the box directs, then I stir 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, ½ cup of small marshmallows, and ½ cup nuts into the batter. To keep the fat and calorie count lower, I substitute applesauce for the oil (follow the directions on the box). Then bake according to the package directions.

The Rock-in-Roll Brownies are out of this worl. I just brought them to a purse demo and everyone wanted the recipe. The lemon squares are wonderful. I added 1 cup of fresh lemon juice and that made it a little more tart. Those were a big hit at the same party. Something else about the tarts is they keep well in refrigerator for a few days. The crust doesn't get soft and soggy. Most things made like that the crust never holds up more then the first day.
