brownies...does it get any better?


Do you ever get hungry for something SWEET at bedtime ?

meee, too.
 BROWNIES...
FUDGE BROWNIES..
with PECANS...AND LOTS OF 'EM
 ..waiting now to get cool.. 
so I can ice them with 
FUDGE...and PECANS..



OOPS...could have sworn I had another package of pecans in the freezer. Must have used them another time...nearly didn't have enuf to put on top of these brownies...


I think we can manage to eat them even if they don't have enuf pecans on top...

The inside is all gooey and warm and chock full of nuts and goodness.

THESE are a box mix (if you tell anybody, I'll deny it )
...with the fudge icing included. 

I have one of the best brownie recipes I've ever tasted ....it belonged
to Mr. Sweet's mother.
Oh, my...her brownies  were an inch to an inch and a half thick...full of pecans and her fudge icing SHOULD go down in history as the
WORLD'S BEST...

Every now and then, I take the time to make HER BROWNIES...
but I also always keep a box of the delicious things in my pantry...
just in case we get the BROWNIE CRAVING at ......bedtime. !

Do you always make *from scratch* brownies or do you keep a box mix on hand, too? 

..dark, rich CHOCOLATE BROWNIES..
grab a glass of icy cold milk..
or a hot cup of tea
and have a bedtime treat, on me.
Hope your day tomorrow is gonna be a great one..

GOOD LUCK.

  2. I have a from-scratch recipe that I love, but I will admit that I use Costco's Ghiradeli mix more often! Warm, gooey brownies--there's almost nothing better!

  3. I would love to have a stash of these brownies in the house RIGHT NOW but I would probably eat all of them before Irene actually arrives. xo,

  10. I just discovered your blog and I must admit I ate a brownie with somne ice cold milk just before I got on the computer! Yours looks delicious. I have a favorite recipe but I always have a box or two handy just in case.

  12. You'll be responsible for a whole lot of people making brownies at 10 at night!
    I always have a box in the pantry for emergencies, but I love my old-time brownie recipe with home made frosting. I love the idea of putting pecans in the brownies - sounds yummy.

  13. I'm afraid, if Don had already gone to bed, I would eat that whole pan while absorbed in FoodNetworks show "Chopped". Then I would have to hide the evidence. I rarely make anything from scratch anymore so I do use a box mix for the grands when they are here. Looks yummy.

  16. STOP it, you are making me hungry. I am too tired to go to the store. I looked at Trader Joes today for GF brownies.......I will have to go to the local store for Betty's mix......it is really good.
    Enjoy.

  20. If there is ANYTHING sweet I crave, it IS chocolate! With all the delicious treats you whip up, no wonder Mr. Sweet is so "sweet." ;)
