Seth Greenberg of East End Cookie Company was sweet enough to drop off a fresh baked batch of his signature brownies as I headed down to apartment showings last Friday. The babies come a dozen to an order, all neatly packed into a brown and gold box. For those who play the cakey versus fudgey game, these are for fans of the latter. The brownies are fudge to the n-th degree, impossibly rich as the photos implies and studded with pecans.
If the Greenberg name sounds familiar, it's because Seth is the son of William Greenberg Jr who previously owned a bakery by the same name on the Upper East Side (they do the black & white cookie that was mentioned in my cookie post). The bakery is no longer owned by the Greenberg family, but Seth started his own bakery and is responsible for these brownies along with a line of Sticky Schnecken Buns and Lemon Squares.
The brownies don't have that crackly crunchy top I'm so very fond of, but they more than redeem themselves with the most chocolate-y of innards and lots and lots of pecans.
A glass of milk on the side is mandatory. Nuts are optional, but why say 'no' when you can say 'yes'? ^_^
