"Punker Browners" (aka Pumpkin Brownies)



I found this recipe and made these when Walker was four years old. He totally loved these unique brownies and called them "punker browners". I lost the recipe some how and just found it this past weekend.I remembered that is was different because they had to be stored in the fridge. He still likes them! :o)
