Gentleman - start your ovens!
Happy National Brownie Day!
For me, the baking
started on Saturday night. When making multiple batches, it is important to get everything together at once. Yes, i use box mix for brownies - it's just easier.
Since this is the last year fTM Matt will be with his grad school family in California so i wanted their NBD celebration to be special so i planned for 8 different batches of brownies, which resulted in brownies cooling everywhere:
on the stove,
(plain and toasted coconut)
on the radiator,
(white chocolate polka dot and dark chocolate & mint chip)
on the floor,
(pecan and confetti)
and out on the porch.
(i always do one experimental batch and this year's was strawberry jam; they looked good, smelled good and tasted good, but had a structural integrity problem - they needed to be eaten with a spoon)
Ever wondered what 12 dozen (that's a gross, people) brownies look like?
Ready to be boxed and shipped to SoCal.
Last night i made two more batches for the team:
frosted M&Ms and peanut butter chip
Enjoy some brownies today
and rejoice in the people in your life!
