Ingredients:
These brownies came out perfectly, just like the Food 4 Life brand. I made a double recipe and filled regular muffin tins half full. They came out nice and shiny on top, and are an amazing copy of the originals. Thank you so much!
Regular-sized sounds delicious – super happy to hear that you enjoyed them! Thanks for sharing!
Off and on for years, I’ve been trying (and failing) to make these. This is the first recipe for the F4L Brownies that taste like the original, including the similar texture. Thank you!
So happy to hear that!
