I love blonde brownies! While I like chocolate, I love caramel!
We bake fudge brownies from a box. Yum!
I can’t type, my dog has been in hospital. Geez.
I love brownies with ice cream on them or without ice cream. I just love me some Brownies.
Brownies are my favorite dessert…..lovd it with cherry pie filling and vanilla ice cream on top! Given my dig has been in hospital fighting for his life since Sunday, I could use some brownies for comfort. Thank you for your daily videos, I look forward to them everyday. I’ve been quilting for over 30 years and still learning!
What I love most about brownies is how fast and easy they are to make. I love the crispy edges and the soft centers.
I really like fudgy moist brownies with walnuts and frosting!
WE love the super moist brownies and we use pecan chips in them. And, warm a slice in the microwave and add a scoop of Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream on top! It is so good.
I love brownies if they are frosted. Also, I love your sew alongs.
Brownies from a box, with nuts,equals Yummy!!!!
I enjoy brownies, but don’t usually make them as the two of us would eat them all. Loved the brownie pan that provides all those scrumptious edges!
Brownies are such a nice slice of chocolaty goodness. Especially with ice cream. Thank you for the chance to win.
I love brownies especially with nuts!!
Brownies are my favorite. These days I use Ghiradelli double chocolate mix. After seeing your video maybe I’ll try adding the walnuts my husband has been missing = )
Brownies are awesome, but I also like Blondies. My local cafe makes an amazing lemon blondie. ( They also do a lovely raspberry brownie which I have when blondies are not on offer).
What’s not to love about brownies! I like the chewy, almost gooey kind.
I love it!! The Sloan Zone! I too start my day with Pat.
In the USA, I’ve found baking chocolate in what I thought was an odd location, Michael’s, the craft store. The store has red letters spelling out Michaels. I’m not certain if that is the brand you referenced, it may specify the brand on their website.
Brownies are a wonderful treat without much fuss. Love them with walnuts and no icing(they’re rich enough just plain). Gonna try your recipe. Thanks
OH MY!!!! That sounds wonderful. I may give that a go the next time.
We love brownies too! We usually fight over the corners, but we haven’t splurged on the special pan yet. BUT, you have to have the center parts of the brownie for brownie sundaes, which are my favorite!
Those are some kind of different brownie pans. I immediately put them on my Amazon list as I have a birthday coming up early next month. Thank you for the recommendation. I love your Sweet Dreams block and can certainly remember the song that Annie sang. You’re the best!
I love, love, love brownies! I like Duncan Hines mix and I’m a fan of a brownie like cake my gram used to make, she called it Texas sheet cake, but it was really a giant thin cake/brownie. The frosting was melted semi-sweet chocolate chips, you sprinkled them on while the brownies were hot and the heat from the brownies melted them enough to spread them around YUMMY!
I love brownies and loved your video! Just downloaded everything and am going to sew along! So excited to join!
Thank you!
I am a chocolate lover so brownies fill the bill for me!
I love brownies with walnuts and cool whip on top! Fresh out of the oven!
I love love love brownies and yes yes yes with the walnuts! Thanks Pat. Looking forward to this SAL!
I also like the Ghiradelli brownies. We have gotten the boxes with three packs from Costco. They are so good. Also, I have a brownie pan from Pampered Chef that is like a square muffin pan. Not only does every brownie have sides, each one also has four corners. Also, when you said “special brownie…” it cracked me up. 😉 I sure do enjoy your videos. Your joy is contagious. You are a great blessing to many of us who live alone or just need to be uplifted.
Brownies….I love them because they are chocolate..my favorite!!! However, the main thing I love most about brownies, is that they remind me of my youngest son. His favorite dessert has always been my brownie trifle. Layers of crumbled brownies, chocolate pudding and cool whip. He has the biggest heart. When he was away for 3 years serving in the Army, I couldn’t think about brownies without crying.
Brownies are a treat any way they are made. Our favorite is Ghirardelli boxes from Costco always a success at our elevation. Oh yummy!!
I love a chocolate brownie. Added chunks of chocolate or nuts makes then extra special.
Brownies are the best! Popular with all in my extended family. I usually use a brownie recipe from the cookbook “A World of Baking” by Dolores Casella. We like walnuts in the recipe best, but if none available, I’ll use pecans.
Love the block!
I never ate brownies…. until I try the most delicious brownie with a piece of fudge in it…. now I want to try everyone just because I wish I could eat one of those fudgy brownies again.
What’s not to love about brownies? Your pan looks intriguing!
I like warm Carmel fudge brownies with vanilla ice cream being allergic to milk I go all out when I eat them
I remember doing a 4-H demonstration at our club meeting making brownies. Still a good public speaking memory. Now I am hungry for some.
My brownies must have nuts, preferably pecans, but I can enjoy with walnuts.
Hi Pat,
We love brownies at our house! But, I especially like them with a little coffee added in to the recipe! You can use instant or brewed coffee as the liquid! You should try it since you like coffee so much!
Thank you for your generous giveaway! Your nose area is looking great !! You are healing nice and fast!
Thanks so much for all you do! I love watching you everyday! You are better that tv!
Pam
I love watching your projects come together. You are a Great encouragement. I love anything sweet!
Love brownies! My son this Christmas remembered the brownies that my Mom use to make that had caramel swirled in them for the holidays. It was great to think that my 33 year old son wanted to make brownies like his Grandma use to make so we did some testing with recipes and I think we figured it out.
Love brownies with sweet surprises in them. Love them without. Love the gooey inside pieces and the chewy outside pieces.
I love them, especially with nuts and chocolate pieces in them and soft and chewy!
I’m glad I tried again to find the comments again-I had a bit of a hard time for some reason. But YAY! I don’t eat a lot of sweets, but I love brownies, and I love them with nuts. When I make them, I have to make two batches as my husband is allergic to walnuts. Sad huh? They are so yummy. I also like the Ghirardelli brownies with the little chocolate morsels for an extra burst of chocolate. I think most people like brownies. They are always a favorite and first to sell out at the church bake sales during the Lenten fish fry. I really like the idea of the pan you shared. I agree the edges are always the best.
I love to eat brownies and add walnuts
My hips really like brownies. They just don’t want to let them go🤣
I love a good brownie with caramel and nuts and I absolutely love the edges so I get some crunchy goodness with every bite. Looking forward to following along on this sew along.
Brownies are also a beloved dessert in our house. Thank you for the great brownie tips and the beautiful quilt pattern. I think I have my fabrics all picked out, and after seeing your fabric choices, I feel really good about mine!
Brownies are one of my favorite comfort foods. I love them really fudgy! I like them plain, with walnuts, or chocolate chips added in and/or with chocolate frosting. Also, German cholate frosting is so good on brownies. So basically any way I can get them. Haha! Now I really want some brownies.
I love Brownies that are chewy, I often put Reese’s peanut butter cups throughout the batter. What is better than chocolate and peanut butter! Its the best!
What a great start to Sweet Dreams! Brownies are the best. Love Ghiardelli. Especially when you can find them in a 3 pack at my favorite big box store! Looking forward to this sew along, thank you!
