By Far the Most Disastrous Outcome Thus Far

I bet that got your attention! So, my experience with this recipe was far from ideal, but I think I have figured out all of the issues that I had with it and altered it accordingly so that no one else needs to experience what I went through. For the Super bowl last weekend, I decided to make a dessert (shocking) for the people I was watching it with. They requested a peanut butter dessert, and in retrospect, I probably should have just gone with those tasty peanut butter bars I made a couple of weeks ago, but I wanted to try something new so I could post it on this blog. I was a bit crunched for time, otherwise I would have tried something fancy like a peanut butter pie. However, that was not the case, so I chose a recipe for peanut butter brownies, as it sounded simple enough. Oh dear was I wrong! The recipe did not call for nearly enough flour or cooking time, and it was really difficult to decipher when they were done. I ended up taking them out of the oven and putting them back into the oven about 3 times, and then by that point I decided to try and raise the oven temperature, which ended up burning them except for a couple of the ones cut from the center which were just right. Needless to say, I showed up to the Super bowl gathering empty handed.
