Last night I posted about my brownie debacle here. After cutting out the two hearts, I called it a night and went to bed.
I do have to admit, I am a pretty tough critic, especially on myself. This morning while my son was making his lunch for school I asked him if he tried the brownies.
He said, "Why didn't you use the peanut butter chips? It doesn't taste peanut buttery."
Well that's because I had to default and make the brownies as I was missing the heavy cream for the fudge. So I inquired as to what he thought. He said, "I didn't really get a good piece and using the cookie cutter was hard as it was so thick! It tasted like a brownie. It's pretty good."
So I sampled them again. And true to fact, they were actually pretty good. The brownie is still a little soft but definitely not as easy to cut into heart shapes with the cutter! Fortunately I was able to mold them into the cutters and push them out.
Needless to say, after getting on the scale, I ate quite a few of the brownies that couldn't mold into the cutters! I even brought one in for my co-worker and gave it to her with a note.
But don't think that I won't be getting a box of Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines to add to the box of sweets. Afterall, foolproof and 1/10th the cost! Speaking of foolproof, did I mention that's what the fudge is called? Can't wait for the story on that baking adventure, Can You?
