Fudgey Banana Brownies
These brownies are seriously dangerous. Dangerously delicious. I was a bit skeptical about how they’d turn out. I figured the banana would just serve to boost the moistness of the brownies. When I took my first bite, I realized that the banana flavor is actually pretty strong.
Hubby did thank me for warning him that they were banana flavored. I think if you bit into one and weren’t expecting the banana flavor, it would really throw you off!
I threw these brownies into the freezer so we wouldn’t eat the whole pan of them in a day or two… They were great cold, at room temperature, and even better zapped in the microwave for a few seconds. Of course, if you have a warm gooey brownie, you might as well top it with a scoop of ice cream and some leftover dulce de leche. That was definitely my favorite way to enjoy these brownies!

Your strawberries are beautiful! I like to add a little salt to my chocolate…it really brings out the flavor! There are perfect for V-day 🙂 I made your crustless quiche last night…to die for!! Thanks for the recipe.
Very pretty. I kind of like them on a stick! It would be a fun way to serve them.
Just lovely. I want them on a stick too! Anything on a stick is better!
Beautiful! Chocolate covered strawberries are a favorite of mine. What a great idea putting them upright in foam so they don’t grow feet! I’m going to try that the next time I make them. 🙂
What a great idea! Makes them absolutely perfect!
These strawberries are beautiful! What a great idea to put a stick in them for display.
I love chocolate covered strawberries. The little white chocolate swirl makes them really fun 🙂
