how to dress up brownies & valentine’s day

so i made brownies the other day and then had the idea of cutting out hearts. out of the brownies, of course {haha} … i thought it was a really cute idea, specially with valentine’s around the corner.

brownies are so versatile. you can dress them up with frosting or sprinkles, add walnuts, or just flat out plain. there’s no wrong way, and they are delicious in any way.

when chocolate is melted, carefully add to a pastry bag or even a ziploc bag {cut a small hole in one of the corners to pipe chocolate onto the brownies}. wrap bag with a towel and start decorating the brownies right away. i did a zig zag pattern here. it’s okay if it’s not perfect. the sprinkles will cover those imperfections and make your brownie hearts pretty ;)
