Brownie Lurv

Attention All Brownie Lovers: Get your brownie lurv here!

I think we all know how I feel about brownies and all things brownie.  To refresh your memories, check it HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE  and HERE.

Dadgum, that’s a lot of brownie lurv!

I was feeling all Valentiney and wondering what might be a fun way to make my chocolate-lover gasp in appreciation.

First, I made a pan of brownies that were thin enough to cut with a cookie cutter.

This is a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper to make it easy to pull the brownies out once baked.

Next, I cooked and cooled brownies.

Then I used my GIANT, 4-inches across, heart cookie cutter (on hindsight, I wished I had a smaller one) to cut out the brownie hearts:

I placed the brownie cut-outs on a clean pan lined with wax paper to cool completely.

What to do with the leftover brownie parts?

I chopped them up, placed them in a ziplock bag and froze them for when I need a cupcake mix-in (or just when I need to eat frozen brownie chunks!).

Lastly, I made a simple buttercream frosting, slapped it in a pastry bag and piped around the brownie.  It looked like it needed sprinkles…more sprinkles!

As if all that wasn’t enough, I thought while the brownie was fantastic enough topped with buttercream, what if I topped that with another brownie?!  ~faint~

Boy said it looked like a Brownie Whoopie Pie!  If that doesn’t say I love you, I don’t know what does.

What I used:

* 1 package brownie mix (brownie mix I use: Ghirardelli Triple Chocolate mix.)

* buttercream frosting (you could use a can or premix if you’re channeling Sandra Lee)

* sprinkles

So simple and easy.

Husband was thrilled with his early Valentiney gift.  I know this because he barely spoke while eating it.

Now you go thrill someone…and maybe get a thrill in return!  Or at least a bite.  Oh, my…

Happy Baking!
