It Bakes Me Happy: Cherry Almond Brownies
You may be thinking… another brownie recipe? Yes! You know I love a good brownie, my birthday celebration last week was evidence of my addiction. I originally shared these Cherry Almond Brownies last month over at Mom’s Test Kitchen, thanks again Jaime for letting me take over for the day. I made them for my friend Kylee when she was in town visiting a couple of months ago. She loved them so much that I sent half the pan off with her – after all sharing is caring.
These brownies are amazing, seriously! Rich, fudgy, decadent squares packed with cherries, almonds and chocolate chips; you’re going to swoon for these babies. They are definitely not diet friendly, because in all honesty I could eat half the pan by myself. They were divine slightly warm and just as good cold from the fridge; which equals a true win. Not is not always the case with even some of the best brownie recipes, trust me I’m an expert in this test. I hope you enjoy, happy baking!
