Now, this isn’t technically a sponsored post, as Imperial Sugar didn’t send me anything so I could talk about them, but since they’re our biggest sponsor, and I still had sugar from last year’s event (y’all remember the 88 pounds of sugar, right?), I thought I’d give them a shout-out.
On to the recipe!
There’s really nothing about this recipe that makes these brownies “Mexican” except for the inclusion of cinnamon. I’d been hoping for some cayenne pepper or something, but no. I guess I could have added it myself. C’est la vie.
Anyway, I was surprised by how much cocoa is in these, but it makes for very fudgy, very delicious brownie.
Enjoy these, enter our fantastic #Choctoberfest giveaway, and come back Wednesday and Friday for more goodies!
