Girl Scout Samoa Brownie Recipe

Girl Scout Samoa Brownies

How many of you love Girl Scout cookies? I will freely admit, I am a huge fan of Samoa cookies. While I may not be pleased about how the price gets higher each year, they are still a guilty pleasure, especially after doing our taxes. My problem, however, is that the cookies never seem to last in our house. It seems that an entire box is gone without 5 minutes! While they are tasty, this isn’t good for our stomachs or wallets. In other words, we had to find a way to make the box last longer and still make it a treat that perks us up. Luckily, I found the perfect solution -brownies.

As someone who has always been a big fan of brownies, this brings eating a brownie to a whole new level.  Not only are they tasty, but pretty easy to make too. While they may not be the cheapest brownies in the world, they are worth it when it comes to overall flavor and if you really want to impress others while you are entertaining. In this household, however, one brownie seems a lot less guilty inducing eating an entire box of Girl Scout Cookies!
