Hi there. The Best Fudgy Brownies and I are here today. I am very excited to bring you these ultimate chocolaty brownies for one reason and one reason only: These are by far the best brownies I’ve brought to Veggie Balance in a long time.
Don’t get me wrong, Black Bean Brownies have a proper time and place. However, when you are craving that deep, dark and fudgy brownie goodness with perhaps a massive scoop of honey ice cream on it, there is no denying that craving.
You’ll be glad you didn’t deny that craving, believeeee me. It is happiness and all chocolate heaven in your mouth.
Say hello to your new best brownie friends. These gluten-free fudgy brownies will not disappoint. R is generally the resident brownie-monster and demolishes any brownies baked on site. However, I confess, I turned into a brownie-monster with these.
Two batches made, two batches consumed. All by me. // #oops #sorrynotsorry #likereallynotsorry
My effort to work out at least once a day has its downfalls. For one, I crave chocolate more. But isn’t that the whole reason we work out? So we can eat more food? . . . Wait, is that just me?
I mean, exercise is good for my heart, muscles, and overall brain and body health (blah, blah), but I burned calories so I get to eat brownies, right?
As I write this, I am down in Ohio for the weekend, sitting in a coffee shop drinking a green tea. It’s a girl’s weekend at Cedar Point where we ran a 5k through the amusement park and then got to ride lots of wicked roller coasters. Oh, and there is a medal involved. I only enter races when there is some awesome swag.
Super fun.
There was, however, a point where I got super hangry and overheated.
I’m pretty sure these brownies would’ve fixed both of those problems.
Brownies have super-powers, right?
Back at home, R is working on putting my office back together while I’m away. You can see the studio wide open spaces and all the room for super fun activities to come on our first Facebook Live Video! You can also see it on Snapchat! (username: veggiebalance)
Every time I walk down into that spacious studio, I can’t help but quote Step Brothers.
(There may even have been a re-enactment of this entire scene at one point.)
There won’t be karate, aerobics, or calisthenics (or maybe there will be). Regardless, there will be a super awesome Veggie Balance studio to make and take more awesome fudgy brownies pictures.
