Today, the high is going to be -5.
That's right folks,
5 below zero,
for the high!
It's not only super cold outside,
it's windy as all get out....brrr

The only thing that was going to warm me up today....
a pan of warm chocolate brownies.

Adding mashed banana's to this recipe,
made the brownies super moist.
Topping the brownies with a chocolate peanut butter glaze....
well. that's just plain genius.
