ABC Congo Brownies

I am a nut lover...as you know. Never getting nuts due to children with nut allergies, I thought I would attempt to split the pan of Congo brownies.

My advice: Don't do it!!!
Nuts or Not!!

I used Green and Black's chocolate..which I have decided is my favorite to bake with. It has a wonderful intense chocolate flavor. To bad this was my last bar from Virginia...and it was still great. Where will I get chocolate now??

I was ever so careful with the two halves. Going so far as really making the pan into thirds-the nuts, no nuts, and the middle section which may have been contaminated by nuts.

In the end, my middle child was having a meal of Benydryl and getting free Botax looks with balloon lips after eating what I thought was a nut free brownie. They got all mixed up on the plate!!! Luckily, she knows the moment a nut touches her tongue and spat it out!!
In the end, I am an all or nothing nut person!! No risks for the love of a nut....

These brownies were sublime!! Rich and super flavorful, fantastic to look at. This cookbook, Baking for All Occasions, is full of winners! Here is yet another.
