Last week my friend Jennifer threw a Girls night in holiday wrapping party! It was great, we all brought our gifts and wrapping paper and sat around wrapping presents, catching up, gabbing and eating good food! I love getting together with good friends and had a great evening. I brought one of my all time favorite holiday treats, caramel brownies!
I don’t know about you but no evening or outing is complete without good company and GREAT food! The holiday’s are no exception, in fact the expectation (on the food, not the company) is even higher for me. Funny how we tend to make our best goodies at this time of year and ONLY this time of year. I think I might need to remember to make these goodies more than just once a year- that way I won’t gorge too much in December?

My sister’s look better (I think I overcooked mine a bit this time… Usually the caramel is oozing out a bit as you cut them!~ Still one of my all time favorite treats. I made 4 batches this year! Eeek! I think I ate most of them myself too.

They totally are! I made (and ate) way too many batches this year (or last year I should say). And I’m still craving them. Making up for the 9 months I didn’t crave chocolate I guess.
