Heart Shape Chocolate Brownies
Easy heart shape chocolate brownies. Do you love chocolate? How about dark chocolate? If you do these are for you and your sweetheart. Okay, can these get any better? Yes, they can, these are extra fudgy too!
Valentines day, can be simple and easy. Normally, I bake from scratch. However, for these decadent dark chocolate brownies, I made Duncan Hines dark chocolate extra fudgy brownies. Yes, decadent dessert from a box.
I made this the easy way because everything doesn’t always have to made from scratch. What matters is we take the time to make something for the people we love.
Besides, I took the extra time to make these extra special, using a heart shape cookie cutter.
Instead of using my usual brownie pan I added the batter to a 9 x 13 pan. Instead of parchment paper I greased the bottom only of the pan to be sure the brownies would come out easily.
After cooling turn the pan over tom release the brownies and cut out the heart shape. Because brownies have a rough top, I cut these on the underside. This keeps them neater.

How did I make these chocolate brownies extra special?
To make these heart shape dark chocolate confections even more special using a cake stencil I added confectioner’s sugar. By the way, this takes literally seconds to do and makes these extra special and might I add fancy.
