When I host people overnight, I like to prepare a little treat to leave in their rooms in case they get hungry after we have all gone to bed. I have racked my brain for the perfect recipe until I found this and I knew it was the one. It does not have chocolate so it is not a ton of caffeine to keep them up (or in case they do not like chocolate), it is not just plain ol’ cookies, and it is not just a regular kind of brownie. It is special and makes it look like I truly care.
Yep, I totally agree! This is flaky and buttery and perfectly crisp with the best inside you have ever tried!
