Chocolate Fudge Brownies
I made these brownies twice. And not once did I have the chance to slather them in luscious chocolate butter cream. Brownies go fast in my house. With my two girls, my two nieces, hubby, mom and sister in the kitchen, really did they have a chance.
Always the blogger (thinking of the photo I just had to snap) I tried to slice these brownies into pint size pieces. Of course this backfired, because after one bite everyone came back for more and more. Can you blame them?
I myself had three (did I just say that out loud?). Anyways , we kick off our cooking spotlight of Joy the Baker’s Cookbook hosted by girlichef with Chocolate Fudge Brownies. So Joy.
Joy oozes sweet. She makes baking fun, relaxed and approachable with her quirky sense of humor. She LOVES her parents and is first to acknowledge her passion in the kitchen is due to the time spent with them baking.
Love, Love, Love…

That’s a good story – I love brownies but opted to make the crackers for week one. After seeing so many brownie posts I am thinking i will make these for week three when it’s our pick of reacipes! Lovely job here.
Kim says
I understand completely. I can’t keep baked goods around in my house either. Yours look great without the frosting!
Deb in Hawaii says
Your mini brownies are so cute. I think you would have had even more trouble keeping them around with the frosting–it was pretty incredible too. 😉
Ivy says
A wonderful cookbook and the brownies look quite irresistible!
Danielle says
Love the brownies! You really need to try the chocolate buttercream frosting….if not with the brownies, then on cupcakes or somethings. It’s really good.
Lea Ann says
I really like your ‘bite-size’ brownie idea. I made the crackers, but really need to give these a try. I think I would omit the frosting on purpose…not a fan. Usually too sweet for me.
Roxana GreenGirl { A little bit of everything} says
i’m not a big fan of chocolate fudge (find it too sweet) but boy, these brownies would be in danger near me!
Magic of Spice says
They do look scrumptious with or without the frosting, a pure delight 🙂
Kristen says
Fabulous brownies. I have really enjoyed drooling over all of the brownies that are being made for this event!
Jenn Erickson/Rook No. 17 says
Mmmm…your brownies look like they turned out perfectly — so fudgy! I agree, they can definitely hold their own without the frosting, although the frosting made with the classic Ovaltine is pretty darn tasty.
So glad to be sharing the cookbook challenge and spotlight experience with you. Looking forward to see what you pick for week 3!
Best,

You’ll have to try the frosting! Hide the brownies if you have to. Lock people out of the house…well, maybe not. I do like your cute little bite-sized brownies.

Brownies never last long enough to frost in my house, either. Although I prefer them that way. My favorite is just a sprinkle of powdered sugar. Or possibly a creamy, light peanut butter frosting. Really ANY way is going to be good for me!
Joanne says
Oh yes, these were dangerous to have around. I restrained myself to two…but only because I brought them into work and they were eaten within seconds!
yummychunklet says
These look fantastic!
