I love brownies.
So, the day before the kids started school… virtual school, we made lunch lady brownies.
They’re called lunch lady brownies because they taste like the brownies you got at school.
They’re very unique – like the amazing rectangle pizza I used to get every Friday with the little square pepperonis.
OMG – so good!
