Brownie Bites. Or Not.

Another snowy day, another chance to play around in the kitchen! Last week, during a trip to the grocery store, I saw these adorable little bite-sized brownies in the bakery section. They looked so moist and fudgy, and totally easy to replicate with a mini-muffin pan in my own kitchen. They became my snowed-in goal today--adorable little Valentine Brownie Bites. Sadly, I failed. Not a complete, utter, epic fail. But a fail nonetheless. It was a bit of a mixed bag with what I got from my batch..

There were some that looked decent. But what was hiding under those perfect tops?


Huge gaping holes. They were almost completely hollow inside!


There were some that didn't bother to hide their ugliness.

And some that didn't want to part with the pan..

So much for those adorable Brownie Bites I was hoping for.. They were all kinds of ugly, and the taste wasn't terrific. Not inedible, but honestly not something I'd make again. But let's pretend for a minute that they did turn out. How pretty they would have been..
