Red Velvet Brownies

These are literally one of the best brownies that I have ever had. I have been working so hard to lose those extra holiday pounds and finally was able to do it. I have really been trying hard to eat clean and watch what I eat. But as soon as I saw these brownies I had to make them! I am obsessed with all things red velvet and I couldn’t wait to reward myself with a treat! I couldn’t believe how perfect these brownies turned out! I have never had a more moist and chewy brownie and they were so easy to make. I had them in the oven within minutes. The cream cheese frosting is completely optional but I believe that red velvet and cream cheese frosting are meant to be together. 🙂
