Dark Chocolate Fudge Brownies

It’s been a sweet kinda life on the blog this week and quite the same at home too! Don’t you just love this time of the year? I’ve been busy with Christmas baking. Made a delicious fruit cake and these brownies for us as well as some cookie gift jars with assorted cookies –  Linzer cookies, gingerbread cookies, chocolate chip cookies and shortbread cookies. Nothing’s more perfect than to open a jar of cookies and find so much choice. Right?

Well, in all honesty, Christmas reminds me of my mom. This use to be the busiest and best time of the year for her both in term of work and financially. Being a single mother she really had to work extra hard to raise her three kids.
She used to sell Christmas cookies, sweet and treats made to order. Because she was so good at what she did; she’d have orders come in six months in advance. Growing up I watched her make buckets and buckets of treats and no matter how tired she got she always had a smile on her face. And despite all the stress and kids we bothered her – she’d respond – yes sweetheart.  Remembering her always gets me going to the kitchen to bake something. Its what makes me feel closest to her.  Christmas is the time I miss her the most.
