I am making those brownies tonight to serve at tomorrow's FR...I am thinking I will do pretzels (Thanks Furry Guy) instead of nuts to avoid any nut-allergy issues since I have no clue who all is coming...
 
Carolyn they are going to be a hit! Don't forget to let us know how it goes!
I'm sending positive vibes your way! LOTS OF PEOPLE! LOTS OF SALES!
 
I made these for a party last night, and they are DELICIOUS! I used nuts, but I'll try the pretzels next time.BTW- they're OK reheated next morning for breakfast. Not as good as fresh, but still tasty.
 
I made them yesterday for our cluster meeting. I actually liked them BETTER at the meeting when they weren't warm. Everyone LOVED all of the recipes there- we did all three that are on the recipe cards. YUM to all of them!

OMG they looked amazing at conference! I can't wait to make them...I was also thinking of a PB version instead of the caramel...

I wonder how it would turn out to do half and half (carmel and pb in the same recipe)?! I would think it would be great - the caramel/pb are added later so the flavors would stay on their own side. What do you think?
 
Sounds like a great idea.
