Friday Favorite

Happy Friday! In honor of Friday being my favorite day of the week, I am going to share one of my favorite recipes. Tuxedo Brownies!!! Mmmm :) These little pieces of heaven are a great way to kick off the weekend. (Though I do not recomend eating too many of these bad boys before a photo shoot. Teeth + Chocolate = A big mess!)


Tuxedo Brownie Cups

 Ingredients:
Nonstick cooking spray with flour
1  pkg (18-21 oz or 450 g) fudge brownie mix (plus ingredients to make cake-like brownies)
2  square (1 oz/30 g) white chocolate for baking
2  tbsp (30 mL) milk
8  oz (250 g) cream cheese, softened
1/4  cup (50 mL) powdered sugar
1  cup (250 mL) thawed, frozen whipped topping
1  pint small strawberries, sliced
 Directions:
1.Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Spray cups of Deluxe Mini-Muffin Pan with nonstick cooking spray with flour. Prepare brownie mix according to package directions for cake-like brownies. Fill wells of pan two-thirds full. Bake 14 minutes or until edges are set. (Do not overbake.) Remove pan from oven; immediately press tops of brownies to make indentations. Cool in pan 15 minutes. Remove brownies from pan; cool completely. Wash pan; repeat with remaining batter.
2.Combine white chocolate and milk in large microwave-safe bowl; microwave on HIGH 1 minute. Stir until smooth; cool slightly. In large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and sugar; mix well. Gradually stir in white chocolate mixture until smooth. Fold in whipped topping.
3.Pipe cream cheese mixture into brownie cups; top with strawberries. Refrigerate 1-3 hours before serving.
Yield: 4 dozen brownie cups

Okay, back to working on photos from yesterday's shoot with Stacy. We managed to sneak in a few pictures before this lovely 3-5 inches of snow landed..AGAIN. Praise God Spring is quickly approaching :)
Let me know how your Tuxedo Brownies turn out!
