Valentine's 2011




I made these brownies for Valentine's day. They were super easy and fun to make, but then again I love to bake!

Step one: prepare brownie mix according to package directions (don't make them cake-like, fudge is the way to go)

Step two: line a 10X15 pan with foil and spray with cooking spray, bake according to directions

Step three: cool completely, remove brownies from pan with foil

Step four: using heart shaped cookie cutters cut out hearts from the brownies (save excess brownies pieces for a milkshake or other treat later)

Step five: melt chocolate and/or vanilla frosting in microwave (don't boil), pour frosting over hearts and decorate as desired.



The kids also made heart buddies. We've made them in past years, but always a hit. Using their own hands and feet the hearts come to life! Alayna even made one!

We hope you had a Happy Valentine's Day!
