INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH BROWNIE MIX
I call this Industrial Strength Brownie Mix because I make this mixture ahead of time (I frequently double the recipe) and store it in air tight plastic bags in the refrigerator till needed. I have kept the Basic Mix for over a month refrigerated with no loss of flavor.
