When I described these brownies to Big D, he turned to me and said, completely deadpan:
"Where's the kitchen sink?"

Want a closer look at that topping?

Hmmmm...these were that good.

  3. Stumbled onto your blog and Chubby Hubby grabbed my attention.

    If this is ANYTHING like Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby (one of my all time faves), I'm all for it!

    It's a shame I can say "Check" just like you!
