Trash Brownies





Alright I'll be honest, I don't really know what happened here. These brownies are pretty ridiculous. It's kind of like all the garbage food you should not be eating, loosely held together by a brownie. Guys the topping is literally crushed potato chips smothered in chocolate and peanut butter. What's in the brownie batter you ask? Two different kinds of candy bars, chocolate covered pretzels, and more potato chips. These brownies should be illegal. They are up there with the hot dog pizza from Pizza Hut (okay maybe not THAT bad). But you know what, I can't even feel bad because they are really really good and if I want to put potato chips in my brownies I'm gonna do it OKAY. And don't you dare feel bad when you eat multiple in one sitting because you deserve it!!
