Taste & Flavor
I love how rich and fudgy these brownies turn out every time. The deep cocoa flavor is balanced by the smooth, creamy hint of Irish cream liqueur, making them extra decadent. I always add semi-sweet chocolate chips because they melt into little pockets of chocolatey goodness in every bite. The green sprinkles don’t just make them festive—they add a slight crunch that makes them even more fun to eat. If you’re making these for a party, expect them to disappear fast. I always grab one (or two) for myself before they’re gone!
