This story, and the many more I heard about these kids, was just really heart-breaking, and it made me so thankful to be in a position where I'm able to do something to help, and I'm even more thankful to be a part of a community that is so giving. As I mentioned in my other post, we put about 180 boxes together to be shipped, and it's really great knowing that we're able to help so many kids!

While we were packing, one of the women bought pizza for everyone (since it was lunchtime when we were doing it), another woman made pumpkin squares, and I made brownies! This is literally the BEST brownie recipe ever, and is SO worth the time it takes for the clean-up afterwards.
Ingredients:
- 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/2 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease 8x8 pan.
- In a small saucepan on the stove top, melt the butter. Slowly stir in chocolate until smooth.
- Remove from heat and mix in eggs and sugar.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix in chocolate mixture until smooth.
- Pour mixture into pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
I didn't for the ones I brought this week because I ran out of time, but I usually top my brownies with a homemade frosting for extra yumminess!
