Almond-Crunch Brownie Bites
I love brownies. When I was younger the boxed mix from Ghiardelli with added chocolate chips was my favorite. However, now, I don't eat many processed sweets because of the sugar content. Over the past few weeks I've been craving brownies but did not see any recipes online that appealed to me so I created these and did the HAPPY DANCE when I bit into the first bite. Try this recipe and send me your happy dance!
