"These Patriot Brownies are chocolate dipped and then drizzled with red , white and blue . Topped with star sprinkles! This is a super cute dessert for all of your summer events. I don’t know about your family but mine loves brownies in any shape or size . Dipping just about anything in chocolate is always welcomed at my house. I wanted something a little different for the upcoming 4th of July weekend and got inspiration from those famous snack cake chocolate dipped heart shaped brownies for Valentine's Day. These brownies can be enjoyed anytime of year but especially those holidays you want to show a little patriotism like 4th of July or Memorial Day. 🙂"
