Nut Butter Brownies

I was searching for a desert for a special occasion and I found these Nut Butter Brownies. They look good and reading the recipe I bet that they are delicious! Now, these brownies are not health food and they are not going to help you to lose weight. But, even when you are releasing weight, it is appropriate to participate in tribal events and these brownies just might be the special treat you are looking for.

It’s crucial that you remember that rich foods like this is a treat. It is out of the ordinary – not daily fare. Enjoy a small serving of this brownie at your special occasion and then be done with it. You don’t eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner for the next 3 days.

Nut Butter Brownies is the latest addition to the Slender For Life™ Recipe Library.
