here are certain times of the month when my cravings for sweet and salty are on high alert and these salty peanut brownie bites truly hit the spot! So I decided to whip up a batch of brownies. But this was no easy task. I have always been a big fan of boxed brownies. They were easy (you can't beat one bowl) and they were moist and chocolaty. But when you're trying to stave off preservatives and processed foods, a boxed mix just won't do. So I went on a search. I realized that I don't like brownie recipes that called for melting chocolate. It sounds tempting, but I never found them to be that chocolatey and the brownies always came out kind of dry. Maybe its just me, but also melting chocolate made this a pot and bowl recipe and I don't know about you, but I need less dish washing in my life.
