When it comes to ways to show, “I love you,” there are a myriad of options to choose from.

You can sweep the snow off the car and start it with the heater blaring so the object of your affection has “warm buns” when they slide into the seat.

You can start the coffee maker in the morning.

You can throw some laundry in the washer and dryer. And then fold everything.

Now, don’t get us wrong, all those things are pretty sexy.

But, what really will show your amor some big love is throwing together chocolate and cherries and turning them into luscious brownies. They’re sweet, a little tart, and have a kiss of salt.

Also, they come together in a snap, and they really say, “Hey, Baby. You’re my favorite.”

Now round up your ingredients, grab your F.N. Sharp utility knife, get that cutting board ready and let’s make some brownies!
