Cutting Brownies The Easy Way...

Brownies! We all love them and we all eat them (maybe not all of us. I eat them, I prefer a large platter of nachos with cheese, salsa and sour cream, but that's another story) I know one thing, I hated cutting them until about 10 years ago.

When you cut brownies with a metal knife, the brownie sticks to the knife, it pulls the brownies instead of cutting it and the edge are all torn up.

Well, not any more. See that knife in the pan...that's my secret weapon. A plastic knife. Some of you may already know this, but if I can save one person out there from a brownie nightmare...my work here is done!!!



See how it cuts without pulling.

Perfect.

and now for a close up.

Who knew a cheap little piece of plastic could work wonders

I made 2 batches of brownies, 2 batches of the cream cheese cup cakes and 2 batches of the peanut butter cup cakes. The girls each needed things brought up to them at school that they had forgotten, so we packed up some goodies they could share in their dorms.

It's only been a week, but we miss them to pieces. We stayed with each of them for a little bit and fixed things in their rooms. They both are doing great and have made friends in their dorms, so it's easy to leave knowing they're doing well.

and they call and text too...usually when they need something, but a text none the less!!

Have a great Sunday,
