Listen up, brownie lovers! Cold Brew Brownies are your new best friend. Imagine biting into rich, fudgy brownies with a hint of coffee that’s as smooth as Portland’s morning fog. These beauties don’t just taste divine; they flaunt a coffee kick that’ll make you question how you ever lived without them.
I whip these up whenever I’m feeling particularly smug and self-indulgent. There’s nothing like showing off these brownies at a gathering and then casually mentioning, “Oh, yeah, I added cold brew.” It’s a dessert that screams sophistication and lets everyone know I’m not just another coffee shop barista—I’m a brownie genius.
