Drunken Monkey Brownies
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. On to the New Year celebrations! Judging by my Facebook feed on the day after Christmas, there will be many of girls sitting this celebration out. Seriously. There were so many pregnancy announcements on my Facebook.
That's right. The drunken monkey brownies. I've always been a fan of chocolate and banana together. I think it's 132435 times better than peanut butter and banana. You read that right. One thing that I don't prefer with peanut butter is bananas. Elvis can keep it.
What makes these drunken monkey brownies? Nothing, I just named them that. KIDDING! There are ripened bananas, a little banana extract, andddd banana liqueur. That's why they're drunken and I adore the name.
