    I just have to say that I love watching you and Steven interact, and I love that you tell each other "I love you" when he is just going in the other room, my late hubby and I did that. 'As for hardly ever using your Kitchen Aide, Many years ago when said hubby bought me a kitchen aide for Christmas instead of the food processor I had asked for, I had to force myself to think of ways to use it, and I ended up loving it.

    Nothing like a best friend who is silly and goofy and brings that out in you. I bet you guys (I'm a Philly girl, that'show we say y'all) make each other laugh until you can't breathe. Loved this video brownies and clownies...perfect. Also, try adding a mashed ripe banana to any chocolate cake recipe, boxed or homemade, it adds so much moisture and very very subtle banana flavor (I can't even really taste it), but it adds a great something, something to the cake.

    Hey Mandy, it activates the gluten and makes them fluffy. Also add coffee for your water makes them richer tasting, because what's better then chocolate & coffee. Happy Thanksgiving.

    Mandy you are just a blessing! You bring laughter and love to all the videos. Thanks for sharing these brownie ideas with us. Next time you get a piece of shell in with the egg wet you finger and pick it out works well, or use the shell it came off to scoop it up, they both work good.

    when i am making brownies, i spray the pan with nonstick spray and then i line the pan on the bottom and up the long sides of the pan with parchment paper, have the parchment paper come just over the top of the pan, then when they are done you can lift out the brownies and it is easier to cut them

Also, I have seen the brownie cheesecake version without frosting too. The banana bread brownie one never made but will have to try. I'm not a coffee mocha person but my kids and I should make it so they would enjoy brownies. Lol. They are not a fan of any. Lol. HAVE A WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING!!

    To get eggs shells out easier you can either use another piece of shell to get it or use a wet finger. I think letting the mixture sit helps it hydrate the flour and the gluten to relax.
