COCOA BROWNIES with BROWNED BUTTER and WALNUTS for Valentines Day

Print Friendly and PDF
So when Hubby saw the cover of the February Bon Appétit, it was love at first sight.  I think he actually drooled:)

I’m pretty sure that I was drooling along with him.  Since I’ve been dieting, there’s not been much in the way of sweets around the house.  Hubby has a BIG sweet tooth.
So, yesterday with me being snowbound and all, I decided to make HIM an early Valentine.  As soon as they cooled, I took one out to him while he was shoveling snow off of the driveway.  I got a very big smile and smooch.

Today, these are all gone!  No, I only ate half of one.  However, I knew that if they weren’t out of the house quickly then I would blow the diet. 
Hubby gave four of them to our friend Jim who was snowplowing our neighborhood streets.  (He’s such a nice guy.)  I packaged up the rest and sent them with Hubby to work this morning.  At least he had them…and they weren’t tempting me.
They were that good.  As in awesome!
They were dense and moist just like we like our brownies.  If you’re a cake-like brownie lover then you might not care for these as much as we did.

Those look great and I can't believe that you only ate half of one!! You are a much stronger woman than me LOL. That's why I don't make many sweets. The Cajun isn't much of a sweet eater and guess who ends up eating them???

Have a great weekend!
