With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, I thought it only fitting that I share this recipe for Heart Shaped Frosted Brownies! You know — because — sweet tooth and all.
Don’t be all judgy Mc Judgerson! 🙂
Since I’ve been doing fairly well with my resolutions, a little decadence (in moderation, of course) is absolutely fine. And, it’s Valentine’s Day. You have to indulge on Valentine’ Day. That’s what I keep telling myself anyway.
My husband and children absolutely love brownies so surprising them with these Heart Shaped Frosted Brownies on Valentine’s Day is going to be a treat for us all. After all, seeing them happy and excited is good for the soul. Am I right, moms?

If you’ve been around here for a while, you already know that I love easy recipes. If you’re new, well, I’m not a fan of long, drawn out recipes. I like simple and I like easy. These Heart Shaped Frosted Brownies are both simple and easy!

If you want to make them that much simpler, you can skip the icing step all together! I just think they look so much cuter when they’re frosted and sprinkled.
Don’t you?
I used pink food coloring, well, because Valentine’s Day, but feel free to choose whatever color your little heart fancies.
