This is a perfect treat for Valentine�s Day � Chocolate Brownies layered with frosting, chocolate and strawberry candy.
EASY VALENTINES DAY DESSERT
One of the things I like about this dessert is that since it based on a boxed brownie mix, it is very quick and easy to make. I like to make treats that look complex but are really simple.
The brownies are frosted with a simple strawberry frosting, and then topped off with a layer of gooey melted chocolate.
Then they are finished off with a layer of crushed strawberry candies. My kids loved these, but they are pretty sweet!
So if you have a little bit less of a sweet tooth you could leave off the crushed candy and it would be more chocolatey. Next time I am going to make half with the crushed candy for the kids and half without for the adults!
