Storing and Serving Brownies

I prefer to keep these brownies in the fridge when storing. Then take them out and let them come to room temp for about 5 minutes or microwave just a tad to get that chocolate a little soft and that gooey, buttery caramel on top of fudgy brownie squares all yummy-delicious?!  Soo good!
