I can. It's Ghirardelli Ultimate Fudge Brownies in the oven. Yikes. This ought to be an interesting fight with myself.

:devil: "You can have one."
:noway: "But if I have one, I'll want more!"
:devil: "No, you won't. You can eat only one."
:noway: "No I can't! They smell so good!"
:devil: "Sure you can."
:noway: "No, I can't!"
:devil: "Go for it. You know you want to."

That's pretty much how it's going to go.

    if we all show up to help eat them, it'll be like the Corrupted Wishes thread the other day---

    "I wish I had a pan of brownies"

    "granted but now you have to share them with 200 people so each person only gets a tiny little crumb'!

    I wish we were all as small as an ant for a minute so we could eat the "giant crumb!"

    Granted....but when you get back to size ...you still have your ant mandibles....(teeth things)

    AFter you finish the brownies, you can all come over and help me eat the monster cookies (peanut butter/m&m) cookies I just made. My reasoning was:

    1) have to use up the peanut butter before it gets old (generic brand I forgot I had for baking then quit making peanut butter food because my son has a peanut allergy - but it's mild and he's old enough to leave them alone now)
    2) I had around 1400 calories to eat yet today (thanks to running and circuit class).
    3) my husbands been complaining about not have peanut butter cookies in the house (maybe I'll send some to my MIL:wink: )

    Take my advice eat ONE very slowly and enjoy it!!! Don't feel guilty just eat it and get it over with and then pass out all the rest ......every single one to the rest of the family.If you cannot give them all away throw 'em because if you are anything like me one sometimes just won't do but if you eat more than that you will feel horrible later!!!! So pour a glass of fat free milk and eat your brownie for yourself and everyone else that won't!!!
  • When I make pans of goodies like this I immediately portion the pan. Then put each portion in a ziplock bag and hide them in the cupboard. It's amazing how well this works.... I eat the whole pre-portioned bag and most days I'm ok with just that. I think it's something mental about... "hey, it's gone. shoot" and not seeing a whole pan left in front of me to devour. :drinker:

    Good luck! :flowerforyou:

    I cut into portions, individually package, and freeze all but one. Works pretty good.
