Chewy, gooey, decadent, & delicious! I was really wanting some sort of brownie sundae this past week. You know the kind - a warm, gooey, & rich chocolate brownie with vanilla ice-cream and caramel on top sprinkled with something crunchy. Yeah that kind. I created this protein brownie with some added flavors so all I need to do is scoop vanilla ice cream on top. Perfection ~ Enjoy!
