These brownies are easy, delicious and kid approved! Not to mention they are from Autumn Calabreses' "Fixate" cookbook! One of her many wonderful recipes that are fix approved and clean! Clean eating is a way of life. I'll be honest- for me it was easy, but for my husband and children....not so much. It has taken me over a year to explore and test many different recipes, trying to find the best ones that work for everyone in my family. Not an easy task!! But over time, I have finally figured it out! This is one of those recipes that works for everyone. I don't like giving my family processed food loaded with poor ingredients, preservatives and tons of processed sugars. I choose treat like this one. Whole, natural foods with natural sweeteners. Give this one a try! It is sure to satisfy that sweet tooth!! Guilt free sweets- that's my specialty!
