Spring is just around the corner! Here at Best Friends For Frosting, we are switching over our wardrobes, catching up on spring cleaning, and making our favorite springtime desserts! We love the bright and airy desserts that come with this beautiful season, and these Spring Celebration Brownies by Beth of Food, Fashion, and Fun are sure to brighten up anyone’s day! Here is what she has to say:

When it comes to springtime, we know that your family wants to get out there in the sunshine and have some fun. Whether it’s spring sports at school or fishing trips, everybody’s schedules don’t always add up. That’s why it’s so important to spend that time together gathered around the dinner table.

Adding dessert as an after-dinner treat is a surefire way to keep your family at the dinner table a little bit longer. With a little help, you can pull off a quick and easy dinner and dessert pairing that will not only impress your family, but leave them asking for more! And the best part? You can pull this off any day of the week!

Today we’re sharing these Spring Celebration Brownies. Think of how thrilled your family will be when they find out they get delicious, brownies on a weekday.
