Valentine’s Day is coming up and whether you buy gifts for the ones you love or you show your love in other ways, chocolate and hearts are the symbols that we all associate with this day of “love.” Why not combine the two?
And what better way than with…..BROWNIE HEARTS!!!!
This fun and yummy dessert is a great way to bake with your favorite little loves (or maybe even your big love)! We plan on making them for classroom Valentine’s parties. (And of course, I will leave some behind at home…)
They are so easy to make. This “exhausted mom” loves any kind of baking that starts with a box.
Once your brownies are baked according to the box directions, simply use a heart shaped cookie cutter. Could it get any easier than that? (I like to eat the crumbs that get left behind!)
And the raspberry filling? Just as easy. You’ll be viewed as a MASTER CHEF! The other moms will think you are Pinterest worthy.
Now go grab an ice cold glass of milk and dig in!
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!

atvery pretty .we love to cook from sctrach here too.I have taught my girls that it is all about presentation .even meatloaf tastes better if it were cut and laid nicely on a platter versus bringing it out in the casserole dish and serving it from that .even though I have done both. LOL!took a little hiatus from blogging but will be back now.Lori

atI eat with my eyes first, so presentation is definitely a must! (although I am lazy or rushed a lot of the time….)
Welcome back to blogging!
