This is a recipe to die for. It uses almost no flour. The brownies are incredible. Dave Stone was a grad student in my postdoc lab. His brother died of AIDS early in the epidemic - one of too many. I bake these incredible brownies in his memory. I have searched for this recipe for years and, finding it, I wanted to share it with you all.
