On Wednesday night, I knew I wanted to make something delicious - and "special" - for St. Patrick's Day, but I also didn't have a ton of time to do so. Z had a bunch of our friends over to celebrate the holiday, and there was one item that everyone was expecting: Guinness. I searched online for some dessert recipes involving the brew, but only came across some made-from-scratch varieties. I finally decided to take matters into my own hands, and made things simple.
Here is the easiest recipe ever for some of the most decadent brownies you will ever try: Buy a mix of Betty Crocker's Dark Chocolate brownies, and substitute the 1/4 cup water for 1/2 cup Guinness. Add a 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, and bake according to directions on the package.
Once the brownies have cooled, spoon a little bit more Guinness over the top to make them extra moist (I hate that word...but "wet" just won't work here).
Just beware: These suckers are rich. And fabulous, if I do say so myself.
How did you celebrate St. Patrick's Day?
I made a Guinness cake... I guess we were both on the same wavelength!
