I'm swooning. I must make these brownies. I've got my notepad at my elbow, writing down the ingredients. I don't think I can wait till tomorrow. :-)
Barb, I'm thrilled that you've post the recipe for your Irish Mist brownies BEFORE St. Patrick's Day. Now I can make them for Kathleen's party!
Barb, these just look heavenly! Fit for St. Patrick himself! Erin go braugh! Or maybe that should be Brownie go braugh! ;-)
Happy Foodie Friday...
XO,
Sheila... who is wondering if you can email me one of those brownies???
I can just tell I am really going to enjoy March with my two favorite Irish friends. WOW, these look so good. If it was summer with great roads I might be tempted to drive down for one ;-)
Michael - Sorry I jumped the gun on the St Patricks Foodie Friday..for some reason I mixed up the dates! I'll just have to come up with more Irish fare!!
Sheila - If I could, I sure would... lol
Marsha - you could slide all the way down!!
Debbi - anything to help ;)
Barb, great post ... You gotta Iove an "Irish Gal" who likes to make sweets as much as you do. The brownie looks fantastic. I would be afraid to have them in the house... I'm not sure I could keep from nibbling.
Great pics. ... I think the second one is definitely a winner.
Ilove the brownies! So yummy! Love the green!
Oh yummm.... I'm so ready for a sweety right about now! ♥ Diane

Barb, oh my, those look decadent! You are such a baker... always coming up with great things!
Wow! These brownies look so moist and delicious! I need to copy the recipe...Christine
I should never have come here at 1:00AM! I want brownies and even if I were prepared to go get some, our little town takes the sidewalks in at 9:00! Oh you're killing me with this lucious post!

Barb, Thanks for dropping by & leaving such sweet comments! I bought the little birdcage votive holders at Michael's a few days ago. I wish they'd had some bigger ones. ☺ Diane
I am loving that brownie recipe...the photo is great...Thanks for visiting with me also. Looks like we're both newbies, so maybe we will travel this Blog-road together.
That is cruel and unusual punishment to post those brownies! I wanted to pull them off my computer screen, but couldn't - double WOW! Linda

Love those Irish Mish brownies. Wish I could reach into my screen and take one off the place. OK, maybe two. And an Irish coffee is good for any occasion.
