WHEAT GERM BUTTERSCOTCH BROWNIES



Wheat Germ Butterscotch Brownies image

Although I wasn't wowed by these brownies, they are healthier than my traditional recipe. And, my two-year old likes them. I was hoping someone with a more health-conscious eating style would give them a try! I think I am too hooked on less healthy dessert recipes to appreciate them. The recipe is from the More-with-Less Cookbook, Dec. 1989 printing, p. 292.
