You could make these completely from scratch using this delicious mocha fudge brownie recipe and the best chocolate buttercream frosting. Or you can skip a few steps and use a box brownie mix and canned frosting. Either way it will be delicious and tasty! Need another brownie bomb? Make these Mint Creme Brownie Bombs! THIS POST WAS WRITTEN IN 2013 AND THE PHOTOS AND RECIPE WERE UPDATED IN 2017 . . . . . but my kids could have easily done the same thing yesterday. Have you ever noticed how creative kids are? Yesterday as I was cleaning up the epic mess of toys that my entire house has become, it struck me how creative my kids are when they play with toys. {Okay, full disclosure, the words that came to mind when I pulled a plastic alligator from the trunk of an elephant where something just shy of creative and more along the lines of annoying . . . } The other day, when I was trying to entertain my kids with some older toys they haven’t seen in a while, I pulled out this little toddler toy . . . you know one of those table type toys that one year olds who are just learning how to walk can stand at and pretend to play on a computer . . . something that my kids are really good at pretending {cough}. Anyway, they had absolutely no interest in playing with the table toy. Go figure, it’s made for one year olds. So Gavin, in his infinite creativity, pulled the legs off the table, which are kind of hallow, half circle sticks (I realize that made no sense, stay with me) and he started using them with a ball in kind of a field hockey scenario. Super annoying? (My house was not built for field hockey. There is a reason “field” is in the name of the sport.) Yes. Totally creative? Yes!
CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRY BROWNIE BOMBS
You know what else is totally creative? Brownie Bombs. They are literally all over the internets in all different flavors. And they are totally amazing. I used them to inspire these Chocolate Covered Cherry Brownie Bombs! These little bombs are a whole lot easier than they look, and they end up looking like these super fancy truffles! Plus they are cherries, wrapped in brownie, dipped in chocolate . . . so you know, they have that going for them.
