Beetroot Brownies #2

by

Tonight it was touch and go if we’d have a meal. The kitchen, so recently the scene of nascent cheeses, was reclaimed. Whilst the little feller’s birthday was yesterday, his party is tomorrow, timeline 1pm. That meant a party food production line in our kitchen. (My cheeses were not on the kiddy menu.)

In order not to starve, I made a curry, whilst Mrs H had her daily phone call to aged mum. Then she returned to party food, against the clock.

But what about my pud?

Beetroot and dark chocolate brownies with lashings of red wine.

Help! I’m underoxidising!

    Thanks Jeff. I think I’ve overdosed on beetroot. My face is even redder than usual...

    Bleeargh! Must admit I'm not a fan of the red root vegetable. My wife is though, although she prefers it to be drowning in vinegar for some inexplicable reason.
