Truly Scrumptious Chocolate Almond Brownies!

This recipe came about when I was low on money and needed snacks to fuel me for a few days and cure my craving for chocolate. I have had ground almond in the cupboard for so, so long, and never an excuse to use it. I decided to give it a go in this brownie recipe.

This recipe is very sweet and will definitely satisfy any chocolate craving.
