Pour Some Sugar On Me - Valentine’s Day Brownie Recipe

Hey Babes! 

Now that February is officially here, it is time for Valentine's Day! I legit love Valentine's Day, no pun intended and today I am sharing a super simple and easy treat recipe with all of you, that even the most novice baker can't mess up! Trust me, it is that easy. 

Here is what you'll need... 

Brownie Mix 

3 Eggs 

Water 

Melted Butter or Oil 

Vanilla Extract 

Coffee 

Powdered Sugar 

First you'll preheat the oven to 350°F while you prepare your brownies. Since, I am not a pro in the kitchen, I just follow the measurements and directions on the back of the brownie box! But, since I want them to taste as great as they can, I added in two extra ingredients; vanilla extract and coffee. According to * actual * bakers like the Preppy Kitchen on YouTube, coffee brings out the chocolate flavor in baked goods, so I mixed in one tablespoon of coffee and a dash of vanilla extract. 

Once you are finished mixing all of your ingredients together, it's time to put your brownies in the oven for about 20 to 30 minutes depending on the size of the pan. When the brownies are done, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool before you remove them from the pan! 

Now it is time to make your treat, Valentine's Day themed! I picked up these stencils in the Bullseye's Playground section at Target and for only $3.00. The stencils I chose are quite large, so make sure to cut generous servings, so the text can fit onto the surface of the treat. 

Simply place the stencil on the surface of your baked good wherever your little heart desires and sprinkle powdered sugar overtop. You want to make sure that you coat the text or image on the stencil, so your message is clear! 

These stencils could easily work on a cake or large cupcakes, but brownies are super easy to bake and a crowd favorite. I think that stencil work adds a sophisticated element to your treat, as opposed to a messy icing job, and it is super inexpensive to do! 

Do you love Valentine's Day like I do or would rather skip over the day?
